[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Save main and project configuration whenever documents are opened/closed (#2114)

[Matthew Brush]

> If by "where" you mean "when" then I thought settings are now pretty much always saved when they are changed

I mean this PR only adds more places where configuration is saved (compared to only on prefs dialog applied, plugin manager closed, app closed, etc.) but it's still not comprehensive. In a perfect world there would be an interface/abstraction for the config system that whenever any setting is changed, a save is automatically queued, similar to something like Xfconf or GSettings or such. To give an example, even after this PR, if you used `View->Show Indentation Guides`, that setting still wouldn't be saved until one of the arbitrary places which saves the configuration is hit.
