Before adding a new defcustom variable, could we try to make the
behavior more DWIM and automatically detect a window configuration
where displaying *Completions* side-by-side makes more sense like
in frames with 48-characters height and 2*80-characters width.
Is it possible to tune ‘temp-buffer-max-height’ to handle this?
Or maybe we need to add new conditional actions like
‘display-buffer-below-selected-if-high-enough’ or
‘display-buffer-in-right-window-if-height-is-narrow’ or?
