Are we sure this is a problem with Scintilla? I opened my yaml file in SciTE and saw that keys are being correctly highlighted.

This made me think, maybe with the right config, I could have highlighted keys in Geany, too. I manually modified `filetypes.yaml` as suggested in this PR https://github.com/geany/geany/pull/1838 and found that it worked!

Could have saved me a bunch of research if Geany had this by default!
