Not sure what you mean. Trees can be ordered and a list of tree-paths
would seem enough to describe an ordered tree.

Sounds like there would not be much left to be shared between different
languages. Maybe we should never have tried to generalize this anyway
and simply declare a convention that programming modes should bind
M-. to a find-definition-like command. That certainly would avoid the
current dilemma of pleasing everybody.

A rename feature would probably benefit from an UI that's
separate/independent from find-definition.
