There is no need to make a tags file for files that are opened, they are parsed 
as you type.

Geany searches your user config `/tags` for tag files to load, but they are in 
addition to system files, they do not overwrite them, and you can have many 
configs starting Geany with `-c configdir`.  Never overwrite system files, they 
will get overwritten next upgrade of Geany, but you could rename one to stop it 
being loaded, just remember you will have to do it every upgrade.

See the scripts directory in this repository for the script that makes the 
Python system tags file (maybe after #3039), you might be able to re-purpose it 
for your needs.

To be clear the intention of the C++ heuristic is to sort symbols to present 
the most likely first, not to remove them from the list.  And the "most likely" 
is definitely language specific, many languages like C++ have function 
overloading which languages like C and Python don't.
