I may not be using the latest ada-mode, so if this is already in there please
forgive me....

The "other file" feature that automagicly generates stubbed bodies for spec
routines is incredibly useful. But it also copies non-subprogram declarations
over into the body. Those just have be be removed again by a human. I'd like
to see just the subprograms that get expanded copied over (and perhaps
comment blocks).

I'd also like to see the capability expanded somewhat. I always end up having
to add a subprogram or two afterwards. It'd be awfully nice to have a "create
a stub in the other file for the declaration under the cursor" function.

T.E.D.
