It would seem that Kib's notion of "snippets", which he points out
should allow you to TAB through and fill in multiple empty slots (or
"placeholders") of the snippet, is the more general case of Geany's
current behaviour, in which the only allowed number of slots is zero.
:) I'm guessing it's possible that, in the future, Geany may allow
more than zero slots, but either way, the feature can still be called
"snippets".
