You seem to have not really wrapped your brain around the idea here. What I 
meant to articulate is a way to provide visuals with regards to ANY editor 
behavior. Ideally you could launch a notifications editor and select the skins 
for various items and attach them to any functionality and perhaps have an 
overlay grid of the editor to pin point where they should appear - sound 
effects wouldn't hurt either that way you don't need to move your eyes to know 
that what you wanted to happen has happened. 

At the moment, this editor seems fine the way it is, no one thinks its odd or 
weird to have such a quiet editor. Yet if you implemented this feature in the 
appropriate way, my guess is that people would not be capable of letting go of 
them and would be locked in/hooked on them. I think its useful not for purposes 
of locking users into Geany, yet for the reduction in stress and I think that 
is a big reason why it would lock people in. When you eliminate sources of 
hidden stress you are alleviated into a higher state of well being.
