So which one is better: both unqualified and qualified, or just unqualified?
We've had this discussion before: including the qualified names increases the size of the table, but allows the user to pick the qualified name if they don't mind typing it in the prompt, with completion.
It's a tradeoff. "No qualified names" is probably a better default, because the user needs extra knowledge to make use of them. So they might as well have to find out how to turn them on.
What symbol does xref pick up in a Perl buffer, when we have a qualified name at point?
Like in other languages, the unqualified one (most of the time).
