Agree that widescreens are not a very good fit, so to maximise vertical space I hide the message window whenever possible and put the tabs on the left, you certainly can fit many more in there than on top, and for me thats enough. YMMV of course. Although the message window contents doesn't usually use the entire screen width, having the message window in the sidebar restricts its width too much IMHO and of course split window wouldn't fit any more.

[Geany-devel] draggable tabs - current state?
I'd like to be able to have 2-3 columns of tabs and be able to drag + rearrange, something like Eclipse's draggable tab setup -- one of the few things I like about Eclipse. I assume this is non-trivial ... how horribly difficult would it be? I'm not very C or GTK experienced, but I got into Geany to learn more and it would be a fun contribution to work on and one day maybe finish? Haha.
