This would be really nice to have, I hate having to create wrapping 
labels manually whilst the other nearby labels can be done in Glade.

Why would we need GeanyObject from Glade? It's a singleton.

There was a GtkScintilla project IIRC that did this, but I don't think 
it's maintained now.

I think keeping the separation of scintilla utils and editor functions 
is a good idea (e.g. derive GeanyScintilla from a GtkScintilla class).

Anyway, that would be extremely disruptive to the plugin API.
