I can't reproduce that here.  Even with `temp-buffer-resize-mode'
enabled, the window doen't change its size because reused windows are
not resized.  From the doc-string of `temp-buffer-resize-mode':

   When Temp Buffer Resize mode is enabled, the windows in which we
   show a temporary buffer are automatically resized in height to
   fit the buffer's contents, but never more than
   `temp-buffer-max-height' nor less than `window-min-height'.

   A window is resized only if it has been specially created for the
   buffer.  Windows that have shown another buffer before are not
   resized.  A frame is resized only if `fit-frame-to-buffer' is
   non-nil.

So what did you do to accomplish that resize?

Here the size remains unchanged again.

For such behavior your `fit-window-to-buffer-horizontally' must be
non-nil, I presume.

It's true that `quit-restore-window' can't restore a previous width and
it should be fairly easy to fix that.  But can you provide me a simple
scenario starting with emacs -Q so I can test it?  I apparently forgot
how this is supposed to work.
