We do want to support them, right? Or anyway make the project size
cutoff (where it remains practical to use Emacs) as high as feasible.

If there are a magnitude more "other" files, and an average source file
contains only several definitions, this can make a difference.

The time to generate is relevant. The time to visit the tags table gets
non-trivial too, and it can increase.

Okay, done that.
'M-.' takes more or less the same.
The file size of TAGS increased from 66 MB to 85 MiB.
Won't measure time to generate now - because the current method and the
"real" one will be different, but note that it's more relevant with
etags-regen-mode because the scan is performed lazily: every time the
user does the first search in a new project.
