What's wrong with just outputting all the files matching the search,
including duplicates?  I can't think of any reason where one would want
to not include all files matching the search.  I would be curious to
hear a use case there.

Since I'm on this kick anyway, I'm going to keep pushing against further
customizations where there really isn't a need.
