I mentioned in the log message that this change was intentional.

The reason of this change to make the first item of the M-n list
more deterministic:

1. when there is no thing-at-point, then the first item will be
   buffer-file-name;

2. and also when there is a thing-at-point, the first item
   will remain buffer-file-name.

Otherwise, it was too unpredictable: after typing 'M-n RET'
to use buffer-file-name, it often did a wrong thing
when point happened to stay in a thing-at-point.
