Date: Sun, 3 Feb 2019 21:02:07 +0000 (UTC) [thread overview]

I added 4 side points related to points that came
up in the thread. Possibly you didn't read or
understand one or more of them. Enjoy.
1. "Everything in Emacs is (and should be) public."
All `display-buffer*' functions deserve doc
strings or at least developer-oriented comments.
2. Don't limit future use by having something like
(direction . (DIR . WIN)). Instead, as Juri
suggested, use (direction DIR WIN), so you can
easily later have (direction DIR WIN FOO), etc.
3. The mistake of #2 was made, e.g., when defining
"noncontiguous region" segments: (BEG . END).
A better design is (BEG END) or (BEG END . EXTRA),
where EXTRA is from the outset undefined (any
baggage).
4. All-encompassing DWIM for window selection and
splitting is asking too much of Emacs. Guessing
the intention of a user or code in all contexts
is bound to lose some of the time, frustrating
users. The code gets more and more complex,
which doesn't help users guess what Emacs is
guessing. ;-) I'm glad I instead use separate
frames, by default.
