The order is determined by 'get-buffer-window-list' which in its turn
relies on 'window-list-1'.

It tries the selected window first and a window on the selected frame
afterwards.  If both fail it respects 'reusable-frames'.

Correct.  'quit-restore-window' is quite sensitive wrt such changes
and refrains from doing more drastic things (like deleting a window or
frame) when the user has switched buffers in between.
