I moved this to slime.el which seems a bit less ugly.  The cleanest
way would probably be to change swank:xref in a way so that it can
handle all dspecs it had returned previously. But that's rather a lot
of work.

The whole browser thing would be more useful if it could somehow
support a "show-all-parents" command not just the children.  It would
also be useful to recognize common subtrees.

Helmut.
