I like M-n too, but only when it provides a reasonable default.

Currently `occur-read-primary-args' sets the default value to the
last element of the regexp history.  But the whole history list is
available by M-p.  It makes no sense to duplicate the last history
element as a default value available by M-n.

It would be more useful to provide a better default value,
for example, the last isearch regexp.
