I'm not sure about that - I think that would involve implementing workarounds for not writing a Makefile. Say we implemented listing project source files, and you could use that in a build command with something like e.g. %p, next people might request more powerful build features. Personally I think for portability and for power it's best to use Makefiles, otherwise people need Geany just to build the software. (We could implement a project-specific make command where arguments can be listed, e.g. 'make debug CFLAGS=...'.) Of course if people want to write plugins/lua scripts to do build management for specific compilers/tools, that's up to them.
