What would be neat is if cedet backends were implemented for tools
like Ebrowse. Then one would have a consistent emacs interface to use
for all code.

For instance Ocaml has a feature to compile so as to create
annotiation files that can be used for finding the type at point in
emacs tuareg mode. It would be neat if this also was made into a cedet
backend.

Also it would be nice if cedet was clever enough to use for instance
ebrowse to find tags when the source file hasnt been touched, and its
own wisent parser otherwise.
