Do anyone have any better idea on how to approach this?

Teaching "ls-files" to leave early once it seens even a single
output is probably a possibility.

Would that mean that we're able to fail early?

Heh, good point.  "Leave once you find one path" does not help the
most common "sane" case where you do not kill any path, so it does
not help us at all.
