I really like the ido-use-virtual-buffers/ivy-use-virtual-buffers features, but unfortunately if you have five files named style.css in different projects, it is less useful. With already-opened buffers in ivy-switch-buffer, I see style.css|fooproject style.css|barproject, while for the stuff from recentf, I just see a single style.css with no distinguishing folder name. Is there a way to put distinguishers on the virtual buffers too?

According to https://github.com/abo-abo/swiper/issues/648, it's simply

    (setq ivy-virtual-abbreviate 'full)

It's not quite as nice as opened buffers (where only the differing part is shown), but good enough.

(I haven't found anything like that for ido though.)
