At first, I thought X-Ray sounded really cool and useful. But then I thought more about what I would actually do with it. And it came down to, "search out the first introduction of a character name that I had forgotten". And you don't need X-Ray to do that. You can do it in any book with just a simple search.
Others may have more use for it, but for me, X-Ray ultimately boiled down to an over-hyped and over-engineered way to do something that we've already been able to do for years.
