Ok, thats the cause of current behavior. But from my point of view, it should 
not be so. Then at least for every file type an own TM_GLOBAL_TYPE_MASK should 
be definable. tm_workspace.c seems to be written for C/C++ language only. 

I see also in other parts of source code to much focus on C and C-like 
languages. This should not be for a general IDE like geany wants to be. 

Close this issue, I'll search for a solution for my needs. As a first 
workaround adding of `tm_tag_function_t` to TM_GLOBAL_TYPE_MASK should work.

Something else constructive:
How about not to use `typedef`, but something like `tagsdef`, which holds the 
list of `TMParserMapGroup`s per language, which on its part holds the tags for 
that MapGroup-item (whatever it is defined in tm_parser.c for certain language: 
typedef, class, members, structs, articles, indexes, ..). Then the lexer could 
hold an own wordlist (and styling) for each of this MapGroup.

Another attempt could be to make external tag files available for Lexers Sytax 
Highlighting. Prefer loading tag-file per filetype and/or tag-file per project. 
Then after each save of source file an external tagger could update the 
tag-file, which geany could recognize to update internal key lists.
