Like 'display-buffer'.  But we don't call it 'display-buffer-maybe'.

Can't we add this via a special value for the 'window-height' alist
entry?  Where we explicitly state that it obeys
'temp-buffer-resize-mode' if that is active and the buffer qualifies
as temporary and so on ...  Or is that what you mean already?

I'm not sure I understand you.  'display-buffer-fallback-action' is
always tried after everything else failed.  Would you want to run it
_before_ something else?

I now always display completions in a child frame so I never run into
practical problems with it.

Your bag of tricks is fathomless :-)  Basically, this means that
'display-buffer-in-previous-window' and 'display-buffer-at-bottom' are
inherently irreconcilable when a window was at bottom once and moved
upwards.  We could abuse the existing 'side' action alist entry for
not-atomic, non-side windows in the following sense: If 'side' equals
'bottom', a window is eligible for reuse if and only if it appears on
that side of the frame.  To be obeyed by 'display-buffer-reuse-window'
and 'display-buffer-in-previous-window', I presume.  WDYT?
