The sudo (assuming root) problem is that files written by Geany running as root get the root ownership, the files that are edited, but also the status files saved in your own directory, things like config, session, the socket etc. Clearly that is a problem since it is likely that then Geany run as your normal user may not be able to overwrite or delete or otherwise change any file that has now been owned by root.
