Michal, I thought I responded to this but maybe I just dropped the ball. Your idea while commendable will not work because of a known bug in the footprint library searching behavior. If you have footprints with the same name in different libraries, the first one found in the library search order is the one that gets loaded which may not necessarily be the one you expect. Your change will introduce more confusion then there already is on this issue. If you do a little searching on the bug, developers mailing, and user's mailing lists, you will find plenty of discussion on this issue. I am currently working on the footprint library table implementation which will resolve this bug. Once the footprint library table is released, your changes will work correctly and we can revisit them at that time. Thank you for your interest in helping to improve KiCad.
