<p>I wasn't able to make much of the Scintilla approach by looking through the codebase, but I think it would be the best option for the user.</p>

<p>I tend to agree. Also doing it the config file way doesn't mean a GUI can't be added later too.</p>
<hr>
<p>Fair warning: Geany's core developers are fairly inactive in the last while. Before investing a ton of time in implementing this, you should weight it against the fact that it may not get reviewed in a timely manner, and you may find it annoying trying to get someone to merge it. I know it sounds weird, but there's nothing worse than volunteering a lot of time/effort and not having the work reviewed/merged. Geany is largely in maintenance mode these days, and the handful of developers who historically have volunteered their time are having less of it to spend on Geany.</p>
<p>That said, it's a trivial implementation, it's much more likely to get reviewed/merged.</p>
