[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Option to hide the fold margin but keep folding (#2927)

If you don't mind a simple user's opinion: I think these are all good changes; here's some questions and feedback:

> UI Additions: 

Why do choose to place these additions both in the Preferences and View menu ? From what I can tell, many (or most) of the settings in View are duplicates of those in Preferences. Maybe would be better to have in Preferences only those that are not directly about Viewing?

> I've added some logic to automatically unfold all code when switching off folding

Nice, I noticed this little omission too. 
While you are at it, do you think it would be too hard to also add an option to choose the default folding state when opening a document? I for one would prefer the docs to open in all-folded state (given that it's not possible/ too hard to implement remembering of folding state). I heard at least one other [person](https://sourceforge.net/p/geany/feature-requests/727/) wishing this too. 

@elextr:
> I am not sure that being able to turn off folding is a good idea 

Unless I'm misunderstanding you: code folding enable/disable option is already present in Preferences; **gkatev** is only implementing option to hide the fold margin.
