"go to definition" should be the clearest option, then.
...Except the xref interface is also supposed to be used for "apropos"
and "find references". The latter, though not implemented for the two
current backends, would be reasonably easy to do for certain
environments like SLIME. "definition" won't be the right term then. Any
suggestions?

I'm afraid you'll have to spend the effort to understand it (but feel
free to ask questions). AFAICT, the audience for this feature is just a
few people, and myself is not among them. So far, I don't have the
proper requirements to work with.
Come on, in each case that's just a few lines of Lisp you need to look
at, and maybe try.

Messages 32 and 41 include functional implementations you can try. The
patches that would go into Emacs won't be much different, we'd just have
to decide on code organization.
