Pydev Extensions (http://www.fabioz.com/pydev) should do that without any
problems with F3 (it first tries a 'context-sensitive' match, trying to find
it in locals, globals, current class, etc and if not found like that, it
goes and looks for the signature in a context-insensitive way, as if it was
a simple text-search)

b) see all places where a function/whatever is used.


This can be handed pretty well with the search that is builtin into Eclipse
(ctrl+h).

Cheers,

Fabio
