Sorry but we can't do that.  `switch-to-buffer' has to provide the
window the next keystroke will be addressed to.  That is carved in
stone.

I still don't understand why you insist on using `switch-to-buffer'
here.  Why don't you just call `display-buffer' if you don't want to
edit that buffer anyway?
