Subject: How to make YARD show full class names in the docs?

Hi there,

I use YARD to generate all my API docs, works great. The only problem is that it reduces class and module names when it can, so when you have same names within one class hierarchy they are indistinguishable in the generated output until you hover the cursor over them.

For example, when you have the following hierarchy:
Action::Build::Compiler => Action::Build::Abstract => Action::Abstract

YARD shows both Action::Build::Abstract and Action::Abstract as just Abstract, Abstract. Both in the diagram and "Inherited from" sections. Which creates some confusion for the readers.

Is there a way to instruct YARD to keep Action::Build::Abstract and Action::Abstract instead of reducing them to Abstract, Abstract?

Thank you,
Gennady.
