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.
