FYI, my new package, Burly, works this way: it bookmarks window/frame
configurations and restores them, including their buffers, by using the
bookmarks library to restore each buffer before restoring the
frame/window configuration.  All that's necessary is for a buffer's
major mode to define a bookmark-make-record-function and a bookmark
handler function (as many major modes already do).

It already works with, e.g. file-backed text buffers, Dired buffers,
magit-status buffers, Help and Info buffers, etc.
