And what, pray tell, would we do with a second symlink to a file?

Like: 
File X, symlinks S1 and S2 both to X.
User opens S1, KDevelop displays S1.
User opens S2, umm... display S1 or a second copy of X as S2?

We don't really want to do either. The least confusing thing all around is to always resolve the symlink.
