advice2020 created an issue (geany/geany#4400)

Currently if you apply focus into the `Sidebar - Documents` section, you can 
use ARROW UP/DOWN to move cursor and then you have to press your ENTER key (or 
possibly RIGHT ARROW key if my request about this gets added in the future) to 
view that currently opened document in the typing pane.

Suggesting to add a setting (maybe in the context menu?) that would allow it so 
that when the cursor highlight is on a documents name in the `Documents` 
section list, that it just automatically shows that items content in the typing 
pane, without the need to have to hit the ENTER key to view each/any item in 
the list.  Each document would just show automatically based on the cursor 
highlight.

Also when ENTER is hit, it does not just load that item into view in the typing 
pane, 
it also brings the focus into the typing pane automatically as well, which is 
not always desired.

This would also allow user to quickly browse through a bunch of open documents 
and bypass this focusing action performed by the ENTER key until user decides 
they want to apply it.
Meaning that when user browses to a document they actually want to have focus 
enter into, they could then hit the ENTER key to do so.

Hopefully this will be considered to be added in the future
Thank You
