If the stack is copied, isn't that a non-issue? Both windows get the 
same history, and then their identities will be tired to the positions 
on the screen, that's how the user will recognize them.

And FWIW, in my personal config the stack isn't even copied. Somehow 
that works out fine, with one small (but potentially significant) caveat 
that in my config 'C-x 2' and 'C-x 3' always select the new window. 
Making it obvious which of the windows in new, and thus isn't expected 
to have existing history.
