I don't object to adding the category to display-buffer-alist. I object to using that as a means to control what warnings.el does. In particular, as I already pointed out, some warnings don't pop up a window with a special buffer, so if the users use display-buffer-alist for controlling warnings.el, they will be disappointed in some cases. > Adding hundreds of separate options for every display-buffer call > makes no sense. Adding hundreds of separate options indeed doesn't make sense, but I suggested to add just one. In addition: . you haven't addressed my comments that currently we don't even document that warnings.el uses display-buffer (and neither do I think we _should_ document that); . you haven't explained what kind of behavior change would you like to make in how warnings.el displays the warnings, without which I'm not even sure I understand the intended change of behavior
