Ah, I see what you're getting at now=2E I've never particularly had the ne=
ed to jump between an interface and a trait, but then I very rarely use tra=
its at all=2E

In your use cases, are these traits generally *using* the interface method=
s, or *implementing* them? For instance, you might have a trait that *requi=
res* the LoggerInterface because it makes use of its methods, so you want t=
o jump to their documentation when viewing those uses; or you might have a =
trait that helps *implement* the LoggerInterface, and you want to link each=
 method to the definition in the interface that it implements=2E Is one of =
these situations more common than the other, in your experience?
