Other tools has similar features like the mark ring and they
provide two-way navigation, so you can go back to some previous
position to check something, and then you can go forward in the
ring to get back to a more recent position or the latest position
if you want.

Emacs could have this too by providing a command which allows
moving forward in the mark ring.

FWIW, we've recently added xref-go-forward, bound to 'C-M-,', which pairs with xref-go-back (which was renamed at the same time), bound to 'M-,'.

A fair number of commands both push to mark ring and call xref-push-marker-stack, so you might find this useful.
