Potential in-efficiency in finding changed symbols in namespaces

[markwpearce]

Consider this code:

namespace Alpha.Beta.Gamma
    interface MyNode extends roSGNode
        commandName as string
    end interface

    function doesItWork(thing as Alpha.Beta.Gamma.MyNode)
        ? thing.commandName
    end function
 end namespace

if this file changes with an in-significant change (eg. add a comment or print statement), both Alpha.Beta.Gamma.MyNode and Alpha.Beta.Gamma.doesItWork are showing as changed.

I think this is because the interface Alpha.Beta.Gamma.MyNode can't be found, because the namespaceType Alpha will be referenceType...

It's not that drastic, but it can lead to extra validation that is not neccessary.
