No, it doesn't.  All programs (including geany) get put in a "window 
list" in the panel but that's different.

The extra geany things are like applets in that they have their own 
popup menu.

I doubt it.  I thought it might be a plugin but couldn't find one in the 
list that looked likely.

Other programs (e.g. Virtual Machine Manager) do something similar but 
usually have an option to turn it off.

I've just run geany on another Fedora 18 Cinnamon machine and the 
behaviour isn't occuring there so it's clearly an optional behaviour. 
I'll have to keep looking I guess.  (It's only mildly annoying -- not a 
catastrophe, so I can live with it.)

Thanks for your response,
