This is what I thought Maciej meant, but this would still (potentially) create \
unexpected results. 

While KDevelop might remember where I was in a file, I might not. Assume I have a few \
dozen files open, some I might not have visited for weeks. Maybe KDevelop was open \
for that long, or (at least this would happen in KDev3) they were opened _and the \
cursor placed_ as part of the session.

Either way, weeks ago, the cursor happened to be left somewhere 400 lines down in a \
huge function I don't remember visiting and when I ask KDevelop to take me to this \
particular function's implementation, I will NOT expect to find myself 400 lines \
down!

Maciej is looking for "focus follows mind". Unfortunately, it hasn't been invented \
yet.
