Should directory of unvompiled elisp file be added to load-path



Hi all,

I wondering about load-path bloat and whether it matters.

http://bugs.debian.org/189754 said that when help was listed about a
function of mine, the user couldn't click on the function name to move
point to the source code.

That's because I add the compiled lisp directory to to load-path, but
not the directory of the sources themselves.

e.g.
  (debian-pkg-add-load-path-item
   (concat "/usr/share/" (symbol-name flavor) "/site-lisp/dpkg-dev-el"))
but not
  (debian-pkg-add-load-path-item "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/dpkg-dev-el")

Is it worth adding it for that purpose?
Or it it bloat?

Thanks,
Peter
