Thanks, I missed it because I searched with 'C-x p g get-mru-window'
instead of 'C-x p g get.mru.window'.

Yes, a function to get a window to select after window deletion.

It's fine to call it with a FRAME argument.  The problem is
how to write such a function that will find the window that
gets the screen space previously owned by the deleted window.
Could you recommend the right direction?  Maybe this window that
gets the screen space is just the parent of the deleted window?
