### Wishes

I want to be able to jump with `C-o` / `C-i` over all previous locations, including non-file buffers. Currently, I can only jump between positions in buffers linked to files, while all non-file buffers are not stored in the `jump-list`. As a result, to return to a non-file buffer, I have to use `[b`, which feels inconsistent since I’m using two different pairs of key bindings for essentially the same task.

With evil-jumps (built into Evil), I can achieve this by adjusting the `evil--jumps-buffer-targets` variable. However, I haven't found a way to achieve this with better-jumper. I’d like to disable better-jumper, but it seems to be tightly integrated into Doom and can’t be easily turned off.

I'm not insisting at all. Doom is a brilliant program. I admire everything you've done. You can close this thread if you want, I won't take offense.
