Heya! Intrigued by tab-bar-select-restore-windows's docstring: > Function called when selecting a tab to handle windows whose buffer was killed. > When a tab-bar tab displays a window whose buffer was killed since > this tab was last selected, this function determines what to do with > that window. By default, either a random buffer is displayed instead of ^^^^^^^^^^ > the killed buffer, or the window gets deleted. However, with the help > of ‘window-restore-killed-buffer-windows’ it’s possible to handle such > situations better by displaying an information about the killed buffer. Over here, 'emacs -Q' suggests that _by default_, this option is set to the eponymous symbol 'tab-bar-select-restore-windows'. So the default behaviour that I observe, when coming back to a tab that used to show a killed buffer, is a special-mode buffer named " *Old buffer foo*" saying "This window displayed the buffer ‘foo’." Based on the NEWS entry, I guess the effective default behaviour is the one intended? In which case, I'm attaching a suggested rewording of the docstring, based on understanding gleaned from cross-referencing the NEWS entry, the docstrings for set-window-configuration, window-restore-killed-buffer-windows, the corresponding manual entries, and the source for set-window-configuration. I am not 100% sure I succeeded in capturing the state of things, so feel free to dismiss the patch; my main goal was to make it easier for Past Me to get an answer to the question: "How do I get the previous behaviour back"? (Rationale FWIW: IME killing buffers is deliberate, so the placeholder buffer feels redundant, i.e. it brings no information; if I am displeased with whatever random buffer was picked to show in that window, I can just switch to another buffer or delete the window)
