If `looking-back' doesn't work as intended, or LIMIT doesn't help, you or he should file a bug with details.

The short-coming is well-known and was answered years ago like "didn't have time yet to implement backward-moves according to forward-ones". Might also be is a comment in source like that.

WRT to limit: it is unrelated to the slowness.

Depending from the task it might be useful - keeping it optional seems TRT.
