Re: find-tag-default

    Currently there are different methods for obtaining an identifier
    at point:

    - `find-tag-default' and `find-tag-default-function' from etags.el

    - `symbol-at-point' from thingatpt.el

    - info-look.el which has the most advanced implementation since
      it defines regular expressions and parsing rules for guessing
      the default identifier for 20 major modes (and one special
      function `info-lookup-guess-c-symbol' for C mode).

    So to create right contents of `identifier-at-point' these packages
    could be generalized.

Is it clear that using the info-look code would be best for everything
that uses the other two functions?

If so, let's do that.
