I would have completely removed the "?" but it breaks a lot of backward compatibility. It is currently only useful for the "step search": if you double click on "step:: |- foo" then it will search only for proofs of |- foo with no assumptions, and if you double click "step:?: |- foo" it will search for proofs of foo with possibly additional hypotheses.

The ? is still useful in telling mmj2 which hypotheses to fill in. For example, if I have a step 500 and I want to say

510:500:syl2anc

and have mmj2 fill in the other two hypotheses. Before typing control-U I can modify that to be:

510:?,?,500:syl2anc

or

510:500,?,?:syl2anc

before writing unify.

I just tried this with mmj2 2.5.3 as of 23-Sep-2019 (as reported in the About box).
