Another place where user options `same-window-names' and `same-window-regexps'
are let-bound is `bookmark-bmenu-switch-other-window'.  Similarly we could replace
them with `(display-buffer-overriding-action '(nil (inhibit-same-window . t)))'.

But then I don't understand why its implementation should be different from the
functionally equivalent `Buffer-menu-switch-other-window' that doesn't use
`display-buffer-overriding-action'?
