Would next-error and previous-error (which are useful for any motion to "points of interest" and have aliases defined accordingly) be appropriate here? They already handle occur-mode, grep-mode, and compilation-mode point of interest, and the intent is to provide a DWIM interface. It makes sense that if any of those three modes are not on, next-error and previous-error should move to recent edit points. If one of those modes is on, we can provide an override, but I expect users to be happy with the default behavior as I describe it. What do you think? Ted
