I'm not sure about this, I just had a feeling that killing
a temporary buffer should not affect its window.  But
a test case is needed to see if this is a real problem.

But there is no *scratch* in the list of previous buffers for 'C-x t t C-h i'
(that can be confirmed when tab-line is enabled), so the user won't expect
to show *scratch*.  And indeed the frame case doesn't show *scratch*.
I hoped that it would be possible for the tab case to do the same,
but I don't know how the frame case is handled to do the right thing.
