These are not calltips, at least not in Geany. You are talking about
symbol auto completion.
And again, this feature is available but you need some data. At the
moment, I'm not sure how to create a tags file for this.
Nick, could maybe the --generate-tags be used?

I think for CSS a tags list can be created manually, at least for the
most common symbols.
But it seems symbol auto completion for CSS doesn't work completely.
I'll have a look at this.
