This won't do what you want - it will simply give all windows the same
relative size, something 'balance-windows' does.  But you want to
preserve the relative sizes of windows.  Try with my algorithm - it
preserves proportional sizes quite well.

That's exactly what my algorithm does: It automatically restores the old
configuration and prints a message about what went wrong.>

Emcas ignores the fixed-sizeness when it has no other choice.  Like when
you delete a window and the only remaining window on the frame is of
fixed size.  But first of all flipping windows should always preserve
fixed sizes.  And rotating windows should at least try to do that.

The alist approach has one decisive advantage: When you later find out
that you would like to know a specific window property before you delete
windows you can simply add that property.  With the pixel-tree approach
you will have to add it to the pixel tree and get one "a" more in the
ca..rs you use for accessing the tree's elements.

And, as you can see from the function 'window-alist-check', it's fairly
easy to compare the alists before and after rotation.  Try to write a
similar comparison algorithm with pixel-trees.
