Or maybe ctags configuration could be done at the geany language level
(filetypes.*) instead of at the system user level (~/.ctags). That
seems the correct way to do it but also looks harder to implement. I
don't know how difficult it is to initialize the embedded ctags with
specific options or to instruct it to load some initialization file at
startup.
