Feature request: not the current buf in ^Xb

[Joerg Sommer <joerg@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi John,

is it possible to exclude the current buffer from the list of buffers
offered by switch_to_buffer (key ^XB)? It is annoying to complete
everytime the name when you switch between foobar.latex and foobar.idx or
something similar.

I would submit something like that:

This does not work, because I don't know the internal data structures,
but it is an idea.
