I don't think we can use this by default (but a user can have it as
a local customization, of course).

I hope we can start moving in this direction, indeed.

As mentioned months ago, I'd like to move away from all the
foo(|-other-(frame-window)) madness since I suspect that most users
only use one of those alternatives.

So instead, we should only have `find-file' (which the user could
customize the use this-window, other-window, or other-frame) and that
would be complemented by new prefix commands that cause the next command
to use "other-window" or "this-window" or "other-frame".
