The type specification of ‘display-buffer-alist’ goes as:
:type `(alist :key-type
(choice :tag "Condition"
regexp
(function :tag "Matcher function"))
:value-type ,display-buffer--action-custom-type)
This associates regexps/matcher functions with actions. How, in such a
specification, can I splice in a buffer name associated with a key
_without_ assigning that pair to the default of ‘display-buffer-alist’?
Maybe I'm missing some detail of the customization interface.

Whatever he figures out, it will affect the decision whether to display
the buffer initially. You can decide that via a matcher function in
‘display-buffer-alist’ (if the buffer name equals "..." and the buffer
is not empty display it, otherwise not) but then it would be easier to
add a new action function like ‘display-buffer-if-not-empty’.
