Description
Using Sublime Text 3(although might be true for Sublime 2 as well)
Similar to Bug #27, If you try to use shortcut to GoTo definition (Ctrl + T, Ctrl + D) for a reference to a class/field in a separate file for which there is no //reference defined in the file, it doesn't work.
At the least we should show some kind alert(?) or warning saying why the GoTo definition wasn't resolved.

Research direction
Reproduce the GoTo Definition shortcut in Sublime Text 3 using a class or field in an unreferenced separate file, then compare the behavior with Bug #27. Trace the plugin's GoTo Definition handling and make completion show an alert or warning explaining why the definition was not resolved.
