I don't think there is a globally quantifiable way to distinguish
exportable headers, so that is a distinct data point (the same way that
for many projects "*/*.cpp" isn't an accurate description of the source
dependencies for any given target :)

Yep, I was thinking the same. I'll look at writing a feature request, as
