As you mentioned in https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/3946, using the GIO 
method only might be best for config files indeed and I can modify the patch if 
this is the preferred way. With this patch I just wanted to make sure that 
`fwrite()` isn't used as the default method for saving config files which IMO 
is the worst option of them all.

Over years, this happened to me quite a few times and

from #3946 resonated with me because Geany really is the only application where 
I experienced this and it's kind of embarrassing. It's true that I haven't seen 
it for a long time but I suspect it's because file systems got better rather 
than fixing something on the Geany side.
