Actually, you could just add a button to the plugin preferences that
points directly to the Edit -> Prefernces -> Keybindings by calling:
keybindings_dialog_show_prefs_scroll("Plugin Section");
I do so here:
https://github.com/sblatnick/geany-plugins/blob/external-tools/external-tools/src/dialog.c
I hope this helps,
Steve
