I don't usually open more than 2-4 files anyways, so it's not an issue
for me. But of course people's workflow is different, does anyone have a
problem with switching to `mod.rs`?

I have another reason that it might be nicer, when I want to edit eg
`init.rs` and I decide to directly open it with the editor from my
shell, not using my fuzzy finder, then I need to press tab to select
between `rust/kernel/init` and `rust/kernel/init.rs`.
