They are. Tags (and tagmanager) are only used for extracting tags from
the document, presenting them in the sidebar and possibly providing
auto-completion. Syntax highlighting is provided by separate lexers, in
the Scintilla side (the editing component that Geany uses).

Yeah, it's a bug in geany-themes (e.g. not a Geany bug). I just wrote a
patch for it (thanks for reporting it :)), should be committed soon. I
attach it here if you want to apply it locally in the meantime.

As explained above: for the list in the sidebar and for auto-completion.
