The discussion you point out is more a suggested workaround to use Perl in a custom command than any actual discussion of adding such a facility to Geany.

The Glib regular expression library used by Geany allows such replacements, but it isn't used by Geany for replacements because it seems to only do [replace all](https://developer.gnome.org/glib/stable/glib-Perl-compatible-regular-expressions.html#g-regex-replace).  Somebody could provide a well written pull request to change Geany to use this.
