I haven't used pp+.el before. So consider two independent
upvotes... for this request.
To add to your list:
1. Undo in pp eval outputs. (There is a separate bug for that)
2. Linkify circular references. So that when I click on a circular
"reference" it takes me to the "site of definition".
----------------------------------------------------------------
The above two requests are not hypothetical requests.
The new `org-element.el' library lispifies an Org buffer and it uses
`:parent' pointers to boot. So, for complex outlines and for operations
that non-trivially manipulate the lisp tree, examining, manipulating and
persisting a lisp tree is a REAL need.
