Hi, I am a heavy and happy user of project-find-regexp (through 
C-x p g).

Sometime while reading search results from the *xref* buffer I 
realize that I should perform another search; I thus press C-x p g 
again from the *xref* buffer. But it looks like the local value of 
default-directory isn't related to the last search context. And I 
am presented search results of an unrelated project. It's 
confusing and sometimes I take time to realize that am not reading 
the search results of the right project! Are you experiencing the 
same problem?

It looks like the value of default-directory for the *xref* buffer 
is not changed between searches. Is this correct? Should we change 
this behavior?
