Currently the 'side' arg of display-buffer-in-side-window uses such repertoire of possible values: left, right, top, bottom whereas the proposed display-buffer-in-direction for relative window positioning: left, right, above/up, below/down Since 'top' and 'bottom' are precluded for relative positioning anyway, 'top' and 'bottom' are free to be used for absolute positioning: leftmost, rightmost, top, bottom If the goal is to try to achieve consistency with display-buffer-in-side-window, then it makes more sense to think about using 'leftmost' and 'rightmost' in display-buffer-in-side-window, but maybe there is no need for such consistency. Using 'bottom' and 'below' will also provide backward-compatibility of names with display-buffer-at-bottom and display-buffer-below-selected. There is also display-buffer--maybe-at-bottom, but I need help from Martin because I don't understand how to replace display-buffer--maybe-at-bottom using display-buffer-in-direction.
