Mining?  Oh, you mean minibuffer history, section 8.5, I suppose that was an autocorrect?  That is some kind of discoverable, I guess, but a weak one.

Trying it out, I can't seem to come up with any minibuffer-using commands where this "future history" contains anything useful, so I guess that explains why I never memorised the feature.  xref-find-definitions is especially weird: It walks through most or maybe all of the symbols in my TAGS file in something like the order they are found in the file.  Anyone know what's up with that?

regards, Anders
