Yes please, just fall back to find-definition (or find-references) + a warning 
when find-declaration or the the others are not supported? It is simpler and 
practical.

Alternatively there could be a default fallback command similar to 
find-references but reordering to list definitions first (just an example)

Before binding to a key maybe let's start again with the  simpler: to add them 
in the right click context menu... And we can find a binding later.
