Can global handle fully qualifed C++ names?

Hi:

I have been using global (including its latest "nearness" capability), 
and it is working well for me. I have another question. Can global be 
asked to return a tag for a fully qualifed C++ name such as:

retval = OpenDDS::DCPS::DataWriterImpl::write( ...)

In this software there are 202 "write()" functions, and getting to the 
correct one quickly would be a nice help. In this case when I ask global 
to find this "write" method there is no way, it seems, to tell it the 
full, entirely qualified name. Since OpenDDS::DCPS:: are namespace 
qualifiers it would be nice if global recognized that closed entry is 
one with the line:

path/path1/DataWriterImpl.cpp:1691:DataWriterImpl::write(..)

No other entry out of 202 comes close to this match.  Is it possible for 
global to somehow find this entry correctly? "nearness" works great, and 
has already saved me much time in navigating around. This case of fully 
qualified names I wish there was support for (or if it exists and I have 
missed seeing it pl. let me know.)

Gautam
