No replies?

If Occur was changed so that *Occur* would "be" in
the *same* directory as what Occur was searching
through?

So that if you saw something interesting in *Occur*,
you could say C-x d and end up in the most likely
directory you'd WANT to end up in?  (Assuming the buffer
being searched by Occur had a file attached to it,
that is...)

It just seems weird, the way it works now.

Thanks,
