"revert buffer" is a standard term for updating an Emacs buffer.

Thanks for your efforts. Your recent changes would be useful for other goals,
e.g. making the xref output to use grep-like output format.

No, not a visual change this time. I'd also close bug#33992 because
it's also leading nowhere. But maybe your recent patch with
xref--definitions-buffer-mode is an improvement, I don't know.
I'm looking at xref from customization's point of view, and I see no more
improvements that could simplify xref customization.
