Geany embeds a copy of CTags that it uses as a library (and not external program). Our copy has been patched over the years to fix and improve parsers, as CTags used not to be really responsive on patches. > But: i) does it honour my ctags user configuration?

I'm sure Geany won't recognize a new language added like this, but I'm not 100% sure you couldn't add more rules to an existing language. I don't know that part of CTags much. All this said, since quite recently Geany is able to load vanilla CTags global tags files, so you could generate those using CTags and load them in Geany. But it won't affect in-Geany parsing (e.g. symbol list and new tags).
