Subject line really says it all.
In bug #35353 Dmitry talks about a "show location bug don't switch
windows" action. Dunno what this is, so I went to the manual to find
out. Presumably, from the #35353 thread it has something to do with
`mouse-1'. And in any case `mouse-1' is the default way to access
references using the mouse, no? I would expect this node to say
something about `mouse-1'.

The mouse bindings are a bit confusing:
(defvar xref--button-map
(let ((map (make-sparse-keymap)))
(define-key map [mouse-1] #'xref-goto-xref)
(define-key map [mouse-2] #'xref--mouse-2)
map))
Why is the command called xref--mouse-2? That's a very non-descriptive
command name. And... don't these two really kinda do the same thing?
mouse-1 sets the point first and then goes to the xref, and mouse-2
... does the same, only in a different way?

It's been that way from the beginning. You can rename it, I think, if
you have a better name in mind.

Does the idea of "not switching windows" make sense to you?

Oh, the only difference between these two commands is that one of them
puts point in the buffer where the definition is, and the other one
doesn't?

Interactively, that's the only difference, yes.

Now renamed and updated the documentation to mention mouse-1 and
mouse-2.
