I think it's there because (info "(elisp) Minibuffer History") already lists several built-in history variables for standard user commands. And (info "(emacs) Moving Point") already explains that goto-line has its own history variable, and links to the Elisp manual, so I don't see any problem, or how a history variable constitutes a user convenience. But I also have no strong opinions on whether or how this history variable should be documented, so feel free to change it as you or others see fit. --=20 Basil
