Subject: bug#20353: M-. sometimes jumps in another window
Date: Fri, 17 Apr 2015 01:03:41 -0400

Package: Emacs
Version: 25.0.50


I tend to use many frames.  When I hit M-. I sometimes get a new popup
frame asking me to choose a destination.  All good so far.

But sometimes once I choose my destination, xref choose the wrong window
to display that destination.  More specifically I get the following scenario:

- Window 1 (in frame 1) showing buffer B.
- Window 2 (in frame 2) showing buffer B as well.
- In window 1 I do M-.
- Get a popup to choose the destination.
- Choose some destination D which is also in buffer B.
- And here's the downer: sometimes Emacs decides to then select window
  2 to jump to D, instead of using the window 1 for that.
