For this to be a nuisance, it requires:

1. that the user actually tries to use related-files,

2. that the user hasn't configured related-files-jumpers for the
   project,

3. that the default "related" file (e.g., foo.c ⇒ foo.h) would exist but
   that the user would consider it unrelated.

I don't think that is a problem.
