[Github-comments] [geany] Make it possible to define default symbol_list_sort_mode (#581)

[Colomban Wendling]

@tchee There is a bug in the prefs UI: when deactivating "show sidebar", the new option isn't grayed out.  What I'd do is make the whole `vbox46` insensitive in `on_sidebar_visible_toggled()` -- and renamed the glade ID to something more sensible, like i.e. `box_sidebar_visible_children` or alike.

Also, what about using an multi-choice UI like this (or a drop-down, but well) instead of a checkbox?:

This would
* make it easier for the user to see the available options
* make it easier to add new options in the future (although unlikely)

And while at it, what about storing the actual sort mode in the prefs instead of a flag?  Again, scales better.

If we want the above, I have some working version I could polish and publish.
