The problem with those is that the user might not have imenu turned on,
so it would take a while to index the file, and might not have TAGS.
Another problem is if the entry is about something that has been deleted
or renamed.
IMHO it would be better to first go the easy way and to a simple string
search, and maybe later try to implement something more fancy.
