Could you explain the choice of identifier? I have a hard time understanding
what "adjust-window-trailing-edge" can mean. What's a trailing edge?
Couldn't we just change the `preserve-before' argument (which is new in
Emacs-22 anyway) instead?
AFAIK in all the cases where the `preserve-before' argument is useful, it's
also useful to avoid deleting windows, but if not, we could have 3 values
for `preserve-before', e.g.:
- nil: same as before.
- `nodelete': behave like adjust-window-trailing-edge.
- t: same as above, but can delete windows.
