[M3devel] source paths to generics?

I haven't fully verified this, but it appears for example if I debug a generic, or fail an assert in a generic,
the source file I am told about is the instantiated i3/m3 file.
This isn't particularly useful for the programmer or convenient for the compiler, right?
The programmer would rather see the .ig/.mg files, and this is easy to provide in the compiler?
I guess it is slightly easier in the compiler, but easy to do better?
I should look into make it so?
My real agenda is I want to see:
../src/foo.mg
instead of
I386_DARWIN/foo.m3
I don't want the target variation, but other points seem true also, right?
Right? The line numbers match between them, and the generic syntax is so close to "normal" that a programmer not used to it won't be confused, right?
I'll try to poke around more.
