Description

After #6672, exact? and rw? no longer report results from Lean.* or *.Tactic.*. While this is an improvement for most users, sometimes these tools could be used by users looking for metaprogramming functions.

We could add a exact? +internals option to re-enable returning these results.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the changes in #6672 and the implementations of exact? and rw?, focusing on where results from Lean.* and *.Tactic.* are filtered. Done means an exact? +internals option restores those results while the default behavior remains unchanged.
