Bug#35718: idea for better source navigation

[Andreas Laag]

Hello Joerg and Roland,

kdevelop would not be the first product that has this feature,
Sniff+ has already implemented it. Maybe you can download the
free (binary) Penguin-Edition and look on it. Perhaps it helps to
solve the problem.

Andreas.
