If this feature will come, it probably will use aspell. But it isn't
that easy at all because gtkspell can't be used. gtkspell is based on
GtkTextView as the editing component but we use Scintilla. AFAIK there
is nothing similar available for Scintilla.
One solution could be (just a thought, I didn't do any
investigation ;-)) to send the text of the editor to aspell, parse
aspell's output and mark the appropriate words in Geany with red
squiggle lines. But I assume this would take much effort too implement
and could slow down the usual work process. But as told before, I
didn't do any investigation. At the moment, I can only say please be
patient.

In the meantime, think about John's suggestion...;-)

It will come, unfortunately I have no idea when.
