Probbaly, 'log-edit-show-files' should mark the window as dedicated
only if it appears on a separate frame.

But the corresponding code is weird.  For starters, wrapping some sort
of 'pop-to-buffer' in 'save-selected-window' is not reasonable IMHO.
And both, 'cvs-pop-to-buffer-same-frame' and 'cvs-bury-buffer', should
be eventually rewritten via 'display-buffer' such that "q" just quits
the associated window using its 'quit-restore' parameter.
