This looks like a good idea. From my point of view it would be welcome. 😄

Problem is, I don't have idea how to get rid of ambiguity. How do we know, which text to display? In heidi it works so natural and implicitly.

The source for Heidi is available, so maybe take a look through that to get an idea of one useful approach? It may be you think of a better way, after seeing the way they do it. 😄

@vtronko Are you still around? We've finally managed to implement this feature after so much time. Would you like to try it and comment any issue you might encounter? It will be available in tomorrow's nightly build.
