although what i want is across the board truenaming of buffer names
not just mode line if there is a difference.
i am pretty sure i want truename behavior when finding files. even
with truename, by default, file-visiting buffer has a name derived
from how you got to it and not from the truenamed file. there might
be a rationale i am missing.
i guess i use symlinks for convenience and working around non-emacs
expecting files. i keep in mind the real location. perhaps others
think of symlinks as a separate view of the same file that should be
kept separate.
