This won't work for some of the native modules as they are not written in python, hence navigation to the source won't work.
For instance navigating to the source of Random should work:

import random
random.Random()

@brettcannon please could you confirm this.

Actually all the built-ins are implemented in C (see https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Python/bltinmodule.c). Closing this as "won't fix".
