It should probably honor the $XDG_CONFIG_HOME variable. See:
   http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html

It would seem however that someone has taken note of the standard though, as 
geany uses these defaults already.  Is/should there be a bug for honoring the 
environment variables?
