Perhaps the 2nd argument to display-buffer (`NOT-THIS-WINDOW'), should
cause it to ignore those variables; it seems like a natural extension to
me, and it would mean that callers don't have to know about all the
various special variables in order to get this behavior.
Maybe. I do not know whether we have a complete list of all affected
callers yet and whether all these callers actually want to set
`NOT-THIS-WINDOW' non-nil. If we bind C-x 4 C-o and C-o in
buffer-menu to a new command, then callers like
ielm-display-working-buffer can call that new command instead of
display-buffer, so that they also do not have to worry about binding
all these variables directly themselves. I believe that the overhead
of the one extra function call should be be immaterial.
Sincerely,
Luc.
