I think the right thing to do is to have `C-x 4 C-o' invoke a command that binds those variables to nil and calls display-buffer (instead of invoking display-buffer directly, as it does now). OK, I probably did not think things over carefully enough. C-o in the buffer menu should also be bound to that new command however. Also, ielm-display-working-buffer should bind these two variables to nil around its call to display-buffer. The same might be true for dired-display-file, even though most of these buffers are usually not visiting files. I bet there are probably other situations like this, but these are the ones I can think of right now. Sincerely, Luc.
