How about making the thing at point be accessible via M-n?
By convention, M-n is supposed to insert _the default_.
I do not want to make exceptions to that.
We could conceivably make a second M-n insert another possible input
that one might want. In effect, this would mean putting another
element at the "front" of the history list. That could be a new
convention that could be generalized to other things.
Now is not the time to implement this, but I'm interested in hearing
if there are any objections to the idea.
