[Github-comments] [geany/geany-plugins] New Plugin, maybe... (mostly) user-interface tweaks. (Issue #1131)

> Plugins already manage their own settings, I'm not sure what you mean?

A plugin could use the proposed system just to demonstrate that it works.  But it would be limited to changing its own settings.  If it doesn't work, there would be no point pursuing it further.

It would be like implementing any other feature in a plugin to demonstrate that it works before moving it over to Geany.  If the feature doesn't work or proves to not make sense, it can be abandoned without being ported into Geany.

> Are you aware of the stash system...

I'm aware it exists, but haven't used it.  The one time I tried, basically just copying and pasting the examples, I got a segfault I couldn't figure out how to fix.  I did write the earlier description with the understanding that it likely replicates existing functionality or could be implemented by modifying existing functions.  Looking at the stash system again, it looks like it would just need to have some lookup and override features added.
