The iniconf parser can be used as a poor man's TOML parser which can contain '.' and '-' inside keys. Also, since there's no official ini specification, I can imagine some ini dialects allow this too.
I'm now aware of #3509 as mentioned in geany/geany#3934 but right now we don't use PEG parsers in Geany and we'd have to evaluate its performance so we'll probably stick with this parser for TOML for now.
