Let me repeat what I said before: The *macro* usage needs to be consistent,
this means not mixing different macro styles. There is no need to replace every
appearance of "geany-plugins" with a macro, this is up to the maintainer, e. g.
many people consider using %{name} in the URL or Source0 tag, since it makes
copy & paste harder.

Blame me, this was my suggestion. IMO it should be "plugin", because each
package only contains a single plugin. We had this in other packages as well in
the past (e. g. audaciuos-plugin-*), but obviously this has be changed in the
meantime, so I agree with you.
