This is called 'Goto Reference'[1] in 1.4, we need to harmonise any
changes. I've no idea why we have this but not the inverse operation in
the menu. If we have one, we should have the other.

So, we should probably have Control-< as 'Goto Reference' and Control->
as 'Goto Label', unless we can think of better names.

[1] note that this isn't actually wrong - there's a certain ambiguity
here in whether a reference is the actual pointer ("this sentence is
self-referential") or the target of the pointer ("I looked it up in the
reference implementation")
