By default, on start-up, the terminal tab is hidden (inactive, not focused). Geany could always use the safe-send selection mechanism when the vte is hidden, and use unsafe-send only when vte is visible and send_selection_unsafe=true. Alternatively, Geany could prevent the user from sending a selection while the vte is not visible, and display a status message. > I think this is too heavy for Geany itself, but could and should be > easily implemented as a plugin.
