Sure, no problem, I'll get to it in the next release.

To be consistent with other Vim commands I'm gonna add :DUsjump 
and DUvjump for jumping in new windows.

I also plan on adding the bang option - :DUjump!(and it's split 
variants) - which will force it to use Dscanner even if DCD is 
running. I find that sometimes it's becoming too complicated for 
DCD to follow the declarations chain all the way to the source, 
and Dscanner - which gets the symbol from the command line 
arguments instead of a getting a byte position in a file - 
performs better. Even if it can't filter to find the exact 
declaration that I'm looking for, it displays multiple options 
that the one I'm looking for is among them, which is better than 
DCD that can't follow the entire chain and finds nothing.
