Context aware functions (do what I mean) depending on the file being edited. Modules (RTL) navigate through instances while classes (Verification) navigate through methods/defuns.

• verilog-ext-nav-up-dwim
• verilog-ext-nav-beg-of-defun-dwim
• verilog-ext-nav-end-of-defun-dwim
• verilog-ext-nav-next-dwim
