I recently described in [1] how to change it:
You can decrease the amount of the used indentation a bit by editing(or
creating) your ~/.gtkrc-2.0 and adding the following code:
style "geany-small-symbol-list"
{
	GtkTreeView::expander-size = 9
	GtkTreeView::horizontal-separator = 0
	GtkTreeView::indent-expanders = 0
}
widget "GeanyMainWindow.*.GtkTreeView" style "geany-small-symbol-list"

expander-size is 12 by default, you can also try lower values than 9 but
it doesn't look good, IMO. horizontal-separator is the space between
columnes, by default 2. indent-expanders is a boolean value and by
default 1.

Documentation about the properties:
http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/unstable/GtkTreeView.html#GtkTreeView--allow-rules
And for gtkrc-2.0 format in general:
http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/unstable/gtk-Resource-Files.html

I don't know a better to decrease the indentation. It seems GTK doesn't
provide more control over this.

I'm not sure. Maybe it could be confusing to collapse the current node
when clicking on the title by accident.

Cool.
