This looks like a nice feature, but it only seems to know stuff you have already open or opened in the current session. It doesn't know all identifiers and whatever might be available from the currently loaded project and packages. For example if you have a unit Foo (either in the project or in one of the packages) but you don't have it opened at any time in the current session, it wont be able to show you anything that Foo exports. If you open Foo then it will, even if you close it after, but if you restart Lazarus it will have forgotten everything.
Also i'd prefer if the Jump to button was default. It is trivial to change this via code (i just set the button's Default property to true) but i'd be nice if it was configurable in options. Finally while it does seem to remember unit names, this is as a byproduct of units being symbols and when you jump to a unit it puts the cursor to the top of the file. It'd be nice if it had a special case for units that only switched/opened the unit file without moving the cursor so you can quickly jump between files with the same shortcut. TBH i think such a "quick jump" would be a good thing to have in the base IDE out of the box. Popular modern IDEs provide this functionality these days and it is even included in some editors like Sublime. I think the necessary low level functionality is almost there and it is mainly a matter of tying everything together.
