Several are all in core Emacs already.  Not sure how they could not 
depend on CEDET.  They are all about using the data it provides.

This is my setup with nothing extra installed:

(require 'semantic)
(add-to-list 'semantic-new-buffer-setup-functions
	     '(emacs-lisp-mode . semantic-default-elisp-setup)
	     t)

;; Enable Semantic
(semantic-mode 1)
(global-semantic-stickyfunc-mode 1)
(global-semantic-idle-summary-mode 1)
(global-semantic-highlight-func-mode 1)
(global-semantic-decoration-mode 1)
(global-semantic-show-unmatched-syntax-mode 0)
;;(global-semantic-highlight-edits-mode 1)

You could try the one that comes with semantic to see what you think. 
If you use the above, also add this:

(global-semantic-mru-bookmark-mode 1)

This is stealthy.  It tracks where you edit code.  Then use C-xB 
(capital B) and scroll through places you've been by name of function 
and select a place to go.
