In some sense, yes. But shrink_window_lowest_first concentrates on the
lowest window, disregarding anything else. And generally we want to
shrink the lowest window; only when it's fit to its buffer we don't.

That's an additional complication, so it seems easier to make the
*Completions* buffer one that doesn't like its windows getting resized.
