I'm going to sound negative, but why? Or more precisely, why not
contribute to DXR to add those features that you implemented in

MXR is already taking too long to fade out of existence, do we really
want yet another different tool?

+1. The technical achievement here is very impressive, and there looks
to be a ton of useful features. The blame walking looks especially
useful for me. But DXR is very actively developed, has 45 contributors
and 146 forks:

I just don't see the point of competition between internal code
searching tools. I would love if ideas from searchfox (like blame
walking) could be incorporated into DXR.
