Yes, definitely not forced but let's say "strongly suggested" because having a 
plugin in GP is nice both for users and developers. I don't think there's a 
problem in having a separate development repo - I think even with this it could 
be quite easy to copy-over the sources from the development repo to GP before a 
release with a simple commit message like "updates from upstream" (something 
similar to what happens when Scintilla gets updated in Geany).

The question is what to do when someone makes a pull request to the plugin in 
GP - one option is to merge it in GP and apply it also upstream, the other is 
to reject the patch in GP and ask for submitting it upstream.

That's real pity it became a real fork - any chance to get the implementations 
merged so there's just one geanypy? Which one contains what - the GP one 
contains the proxy plugin stuff and yours not or the other way round?
