Yeah, both should still work. I've pushed the buffer-killing 
implementation, please take a look.

One drawback comes to mind:

xref-goto-xref calls xref-quit without the KILL argument, so the 
temporary buffers are not cleared if you make a choice and press RET.

Not sure what these are.

Depends on what you want each of them to do.

debugger-mode should probably set both relevant vars to the same values 
as emacs-lisp-mode. help-mode and Custom-mode - maybe too, although they 
might use some custom logic.

In Info-mode, xref-find-function could use the index and the search 
functionality.
