Currently, meta-dot on a structure accessor quietly fails. It should go to the defstruct, and ideally the cursor should be at the line that defines the slot.

meta-. doesn't work, in the sense that nothing happens if you put in point in the middle of a symbol and hit meta-., in a number of perfectly reasonable contexts:

• comments: ;; (foo)

• Strings: "This is a doc string about foo"

• Quotes: (funcall 'foo) or (funcall #'foo)

It needs to try harder. If standard hemlock parsing doesn't yield anything useful, it should just gather up all the symbol constituents around point and try that.

? (defun foo () (push 'a (list 'x 'x)))
