It's nice to know when making a colour scheme that when you set a style, it's going to apply to the stuff you expect. It's kind of like if web browsers styled all `<span>` tags identical to `<p>` tags behind the CSS stylesheets' backs because on one particular site it looked better (sorry for cheesy web-analogy).

That being said, I agree the "wrong" way looks better with the default colour scheme and if it looks alright with all existing [geany-themes](https://github.com/geany/geany-themes/tree/master/colorschemes) and especially the [alt.conf](https://github.com/geany/geany/blob/master/data/colorschemes/alt.conf) scheme shipped with Geany, then it's likely to not be a huge deal. having it "wrong" for this particular filetype.
