But since "o" should insert the ?o character in other modes, I added "M-" key prefix. Though, M-o is not needed too much. I would rather not use up another binding for this. Please leave it out. So as I understand, a general convention would be using forward-/backward- prefix for commands that move the point only in the current compile/grep/... buffer, and next-/previous- for commands which are invoked in the source buffers. I did not go that far. What I said is that the names forward-/backward- are elsewhere used normally for commands that move within the buffer. In fact, so are the names next- and previous-. In this case, we are already using next- and previous- in a nonstandard way, but that's no obstacle to using forward-/backward- in the standard way here. Using such names here is better than the available alternatives, so let's use them.
