The unfortunate imbalance here at the moment is that piping the list of 
file names through file-local-name takes longer than the time to fetch 
all the project files, and the time to search them, combined with the 
all the necessary round-trips to the servers I have been testing at 
(where the RTT is > 200 ms). As soon as the project is at least of 
moderate size.
