That seems very convenient!

I think it may also be convenient if, point is not on a number, use
the first number on the current line as a default.

This is because I think it's common to have point sitting at the
beginning of an error line, and this would save users the effort of
manually positioning point over the actual line number (the heuristic
could fail in some cases if for instance a filename contained digits,
but I think it would often be right).

BTW, also maybe the prompt in the "use last selected buffer" case
should mention the buffer name.

Thanks,
