I think polluting the namespace is not a good thing.  There are too many
commands that display a new buffer, and don't have the duplicate name with
the `-other-window' suffix, and adding more redundant commands will increase
the mess.

I don't suggest removing `-other-window' from the existing basic commands,
but suggest not to add it to minor commands like `find-library' .
