I re-read the --nearness documentation. As I understand, it is simply a sorting 
method.
And a second parse won't be required. Right? So configuring --nearness to 
accept files
shall be enough for me (and probably would benefit IDEs too). In OOP based 
languages,
my suggestion may get more wrong to guess the right definition. So, you are 
probably
right on this.

Sorry for the mis-understanding.
