Add jump-to-definition
Do you mean jump-to-definition? It's bound to ctrl-. by default but at the moment it is only supported in clj/cljs.
We can use (https://github.com/davidhalter/jedi) for python and tern ( http://ternjs.net/) for js. We just need to implement async autocompletion first. Shouldn't be too hard.

apparently, since we're already using IPython anyway, we maybe could use IPython's autocomplete within LT, like so
import rlcompleter, readline
readline.parse_and_bind('tab:complete')
Also, there's IPython.core.completer
Is there anybody already implementing async autocompletion? Seems to be most hard part for me (and others just digging into LT's thread/thread* | background macro kitchen) and very useful for implementing interaction of other languages.
I just found a vim plugin which offers python autocompletion in vim via IPython, so it's possible from a technical standpoint: https://github.com/ivanov/vim-ipython
We don't have bandwidth to take this on but happy to take pull requests. For someone interested in implementing this, these are the relevant behaviors from the Clojure plugin.
