I don't use xref. Dunno whether it uses the minibuffer.
But if it does then, FWIW, IMO `C-j' in the minibuffer should
have its usual behavior of inserting a newline.
The minibuffer lets you do ordinary text editing of your
input, which can be multiline. It should, at least.
(For the same reason, `?', `SPC' etc. should have their usual,
self-inserting behavior in the minibuffer. It was misguided
to have them show help and complete words. We finally, after
decades, got `SPC' to self-insert for file-name completion,
at least.)
Just one opinion.
