User customizations are respected here, but limited.

How the user is supposed to customize this behavior
on a per-application basis?

E.g. how to customize it to display "*vc-dir*" in another window,
but "*vc-diff*" in the same window?

It seems `special-display-buffer-names' is what we need.
It could support all values you mentioned above
on a per-application basis like:

  (("*buffer name*" (window . largest)))
  (("*buffer name*" (window . lru)))
  (("*buffer name*" (window . selected)))
  (("*buffer name*" (window . root)))
