> Yes it works for elisp, because its xref backend is simplistic enough to just accept the symbol given as argument. An example of a package where it doesn't work is merlin which is rather more sophisticated and wants to find the exact context so that it can find the right definition, so it ignores the argument.

Having actually read the doc strings I see that xref backends are supposed to define `xref-backend-identifier-at-point` which can stuff any information it needs in a property of the string it returns, as sort of a semi-covert channel to `xref-backend-definitions` etc. Sorry about the unfounded complaint.

Would adding `xref-find-references-at-mouse` be handy for use in the context menu?
