Of course I would not mind simply already committing my patch, that way my 
issues are already scratched ;) and I know the next release will cover it, 
independing if further discussions will hold up this patch here. Just, as I 
learned by this patch, unit tests are possible also with ecm, so I should add 
one.

WRT to explicit arguments, being strict about only filenames with separators or 
not, I wonder if separators are used consistently with filenames. One real-word 
example from KDE repos: include/KF5/konq_historyentry.h for class 
KonqHistoryEntry. So some people use separators only randomly, so not to 
separate any words, but just a few. So it might make sense to extend this patch 
to only optionally expect separators (hm, perhaps by using `file(GLOB)` to get 
a list of all candidates, and if no=1 take that, otherwise complain), unless we 
are okay with enforcing people to rename their original header files to match 
exactly the pattern expected.
