Alt-3 Alt-. (, Alt-., ...) (cycling through 3rd argument) is what I have been looking for for years

Note that you can use the digit argument with M-. as well: Alt-3 Alt-Ctrl-y for example equals holding Alt and typing 3.. If you type 3. that multiple times without releasing Alt you go through the third arguments of your previous command lines.

@ChadSkeeters: And -s (new in Bash 4) lists macros created using -x.

When looking for keyboard shortcuts for bash/readline, I like running bind -lp and looking at the current bindings.
