Adding myself to the list of people who use winner-mode often and are
happy with the keybinding status quo.

As a case in point, I found `ediff' mode very frustrating in that upon
quitting, it would always leave me with an undesirable window
configuration, and I never figured out how to *reliably* automate using
`winner-undo' for that situation. What did work was what you're
suggesting:
(defun my-ediff-pre ()
"Stuff to perform before starting any `ediff' session.
Meant to be an entry in variable `ediff-before-setup-hook'."
(make-frame-command)
(set-frame-name "ediff"))
(defun my-ediff-post ()
"Stuff to perform after exiting any `ediff' session.
Meant to be an entry in variable `ediff-quit-hook'."
(condition-case nil
(progn
(select-frame-by-name "ediff")
(delete-frame))))
(add-hook 'ediff-before-setup-hook #'my-ediff-pre)
(add-hook 'ediff-quit-hook #'my-ediff-post 100)
IMO, this should be considered as a default setup for ediff, and the
notion of defaulting to a dedicated frame for certain other specific
tasks should be considered (eg. calendar/diary). BTW, I do this with
packages diredc and crossword.
