Idealy, but language support can't be perfect, while CTags is perfect.
Think about the KDev3 language supports. The CTags can lookup
even macros or variable definitions, while language support can't.
I useually use jump to XXX or QuickOpen part, but there is some case
where only Ctags is really helpful.

Currently, we don't have any promise that each language support
would be that perfect.
