I like this solution.
When I display-buffer *shell* I generally don't want it to be in the
same window. The only exception is when I do M-x shell.
The problem with temporarily binding same-window-buffer-names to nil
is that it needs to be done for many different cases (basically
all the cases that do something similar to "select the specified
buffer" and there are many, including in many separate packages
providing some buffe-switching or buffer-listing replacement).
