> the key names are not translated (also the dialogs text is translated)

Being an ASCII only person I can't test it, but I checked and the key name 
strings seem to be marked for translation and they are translated in the random 
po file I checked (fr.po).  Maybe its just that nobody has translated them for 
your language.  Which one did you use?

This is a GTK issue.  Geany gets the key names from GTK and it returns 
`primary` instead of `ctrl`.  

I think its because which is the primary key depends on the keyboard, and 
system and keymapping.  For example Macs have all sorts of funny modifier keys. 
 The use of `primary` is a portable name that works on all systems and so can 
be portably saved in files, but of course when showing it on the menus GTK 
knows the particular system its running on and what the real `primary` key is 
and uses that name, `ctrl` on your system.
