Well, mixing "full-time" automatic ordering with manual ordering would
be a problem, but there could be some command to do a one-time sort,
which would still be helpful for some users with tons of open files.
If not built in to Geany, then perhaps this could be a plugin or
something.

Another possibility (though probably more work, and Yet Another
Setting) would be to have full-time automatic ordering be a user
preference.
