In my experience only when you implement it correctly. If I add a new method to the interface I can't navigate to the implementations anymore because they don't completely implement the interface.

That's surely the correct behaviour?

It is. But it's also an inconvenience. In a language like Java I can just say that a class implements an interface. If the interface changes the compiler and the IDE tell me about the missing methods. Go not so much.
