Sorry. I misread *Compilation* instead of *Completions*.

*Completion* and *Compilation* are very dissimilar in terms of behavior
and purpose. But I think I see your point. You try to make a case for an
electric *xref*. That quite could be, but I would rather not have that
as a default.

As I have said before, there are common electric interfaces (Helm, Ido
etc.) that will surely pick xref up later. I would prefer to have a
*standard* default alternative which is not electric.

Thanks,

  Vitalie
