Hi Jake,

I think its likely related to the fact that Geany only requires an old
version of Glib file handling (deliberately).  But the GIO file
handling that fixes these problems is only available in a much more
recent version, and of course is what gedit uses
.
Clearly Glib is not going to be fixed and there is some consideration
being given to making the GIO file handling available in Geany if the
system it runs on supports it, but someone has to have the time to do
it.

Cheers
Lex
