I said you could make a plugin to do it, but you likely could not "use Scite 
itself".  

Several plugins add a new tab to the message window.  But the plugin would have 
to run the command and intercept the output itself and apply colouring, and as 
plugins can be C++ you might even be able to use some of Scite's code for the 
colouring.

What he is saying is that Geany is an entirely volunteer project, nothing 
exists in Geany unless somebody _wanted/needed_ it and _contributed_ it.  There 
are no paid staff to implement requests.  If it doesn't exist nobody who was 
capable of contributing it wanted/needed it (or at least wanted/needed it 
enough to spend their own time on contributing it).
