<p>From previous discussions, I think the suggestion (consensus?) was that for resources like markers, indicators and such, it would be best for Geany to manage and allocate these for the plugins so that each plugin doesn't try and use the same indices.</p>
<p>From the filetype plugin discussions, I think the idea was that plugins would "register" themselves as handling a particular filetype. This could be further extended for such things as project plugins by the plugins registering as providing a particular "role", and Geany would advise the user if two plugins tried to claim the same role when the second one was activated. This would also be useful in general since it doesn't make much sense to have two project plugins, debugger plugins, auto-bracket plugins, etc.</p>
