Well I'm not a core developer, but in a nutshell, I think
it would be something like:

  sci_get_selected_text_length();
  sci_get_selected_text() ;
  g_spawn_async_with_pipes();
  sci_replace_sel();

The build_spawn_cmd() function in geany/src/build.c
could give some ideas for the g_spawn_* code.

If I get some time next week, I might give it a try,
unless someone else beats me to it ;-)
