It seems the biggest challenge that needs to be solved before making
any changes in core Emacs is how to keep backward-compatibility with
keybindings added by users to the existing keymap ctl-x-4-map.
I guess it should be fine to run -other-window commands from these keymaps
because display-buffer-overriding-action will override their default
behavior but will provide the same outcome.  Then maybe a new command bound
to `C-x 4` could just introspect ctl-x-4-map and run its commands as is.
