It works as described. I have a few functions based on the org-agenda-buffer-name, which now is no more available, as all the agenda buffers are named differently: .. (if (get-buffer org-agenda-buffer-name) .. will no more work. I hope that the current agenda buffer names pattern will stay as it is. I will have to hardcode the changed buffer names.
