The docs state:
,----[ (info "(elisp)Other Display Specs") ]
| You can make any display specification conditional. To do that,
| package it in another list of the form ‘(when CONDITION . SPEC)’. Then
| the specification SPEC applies only when CONDITION evaluates to a
| non-‘nil’ value. During the evaluation, ‘object’ is bound to the string
| or buffer having the conditional ‘display’ property. ‘position’ and
| ‘buffer-position’ are bound to the position within ‘object’ and the
| buffer position where the ‘display’ property was found, respectively.
| Both positions can be different when ‘object’ is a string.
`----
So in a conditional display spec, object should always be a buffer.
However, that doesn't seem to be the reality. Sometimes, it is also a
window.
Here's a recipe for the current master:
$ emacs -q
In *scratch* insert and evaluate:
(insert (propertize "foobar" 'display
`(when (get-buffer-window object)
. ,(format "%s" (random)))) "\n")
Now move point over the displayed random number, hit and hold C-l, or
do whatever triggers redisplay.
Now I have this in *Messages*:
Error during redisplay: (eval (get-buffer-window object)) signaled (wrong-type-argument stringp #<window 3 on *scratch*>) [33 times]

The documentation is correct, but the code had a bug. I hope I fixed
it now.
Thanks.

I can't tell. It seems you haven't pushed that change yet.

Oops, sorry. It was a busy evening after an even busier day. (I did
say "git push", but failed to notice that the push was rejected by the
upstream repository.)
I pushed it now, please take a look.
Btw, if you need your code to work with versions of Emacs before this
bugfix, you can use the following kludgey workaround: if OBJECT is a
window, that stands for the current buffer.

Yes, it works now.

My code has to get the window in order to get the font used to display
BUFFER-POSITION so this bug had positive side-effects for my use-case.
I'll let it in.
Bye,
