No, I don't think we really "need" it - I guess you would want to weigh the
(perceived) gain against the difficulty of implementing and documenting
it, plus the additional bloat to geany itself.

( For that matter, I could do something similar with a few lines of Lua.  :)

"Save All" just saves everything that needs saved in one shot.
"Save Each" loops through the unsaved files with another confirmation
for each one, like "save file.one?" "save file.two?" ...
(Probably overkill actually, most people would either want all or none.)
