<p dir="auto">Understandable. However, I wanted to make ctags pass extracted information to client tools including Geany as is.<br>
I thought ctags should not do too clever. Reducing information can be done in a client tool. In ctags level, just passing too much information is better than reducing information. Even if a target language doing wrong, ctags doesn't try to fix it. This basic rule makes the development ctags a bit easier.</p>

<p dir="auto">What ctags can do is providing more API for:<br>
(1) getting separators, and<br>
(2) adjusting separators as a client tool wants when making tags.</p>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">OK, understood, I think no API is needed, I just converted <code>\</code> to <code>::</code> for PHP in Geany, no real problem there.</p>

<p dir="auto">It seems that you misunderstand the meaning of roles.</p>

<p dir="auto">It's true I misunderstood roles, the problem is still present though - I just created a new issue against ctags here <a class="issue-link js-issue-link" data-error-text="Failed to load title" data-id="1069778546" data-permission-text="Title is private" data-url="https://github.com/universal-ctags/ctags/issues/3211" data-hovercard-type="issue" data-hovercard-url="/universal-ctags/ctags/issues/3211/hovercard" href="https://github.com/universal-ctags/ctags/issues/3211">universal-ctags/ctags#3211</a> so we don't pollute this thread.</p>
