To me, this is a programmatic concern and only the program understands the
context in which it is called.  In a sense, this is buffer-local equivalent
as uniquify-managed is itself buffer-local.  If this is made global, I
sense there may be window-state-get uses that depend on uniquify names but
since I can't survey the field, I think this would be dangerous.  We can
always promote this to a user option later.
