From editor point of view there will be just one "buffer". It just won't 
correspond to any file, and for "save" command, KDevelop will split the 
content of buffer in two files. The highlighting will work just like it works 
now. For debugger tooltips, there should be reverse mapping from lines of 
real files to unified buffers. That sounds like pretty simple task, compared 
to the rest.
