That's a good point.
But the problem remains: too often I have to first mark a word or symbol,
copy the region, start a command (`grep', `occur', `query-replace',
whatever), paste it, press <enter>. That's three keystrokes too many.
How do other people accomplish this?
I think something like isearch's "C-w" and friends extended to other
commands which read from the minibuffer would be useful.
Opinions?
