Find Declaration Of squences from cursor

Find Declaration Of (right click on function or declaration name) works, but it doesn't do much good under these conditions:

1) a declaration statement of the same name is in another file

2) the declaration you want is in the same file you're editing in the active editor window as is ABOVE the location of your cursor.

What happens is that the search is (apparently) done from the cursor, down, and then on to other files in the project. The result is unfortunate (I caught it in time) - the declaration that I didn't want appeared and I coded merrily until I realized: shit! This is the wrong file!

The behaviour ought to be that the search is first limited to the current file, then it traverses to another file. It would be ideal if the new tab that's opened flashes or some such behaviour, to indicate that the IDE has just opened another file and that you're now in it.
