Comment:

 If you select a file in a subdirectory for editing, the list of files in
 the sidebar completely breaks, and the current plugin is not correctly
 selected. I can't believe there isn't an existing ticket for this.

 I think that's closely related to this and they should be fixed together.
 `get_plugin_files()` should probably always be passed the plugin's root
 file, not the file being currently edited.

 We should also get some unit tests on this.
