>>> 3. And yet you do it, so perhaps you would like to consider code where

>>> you let-bind are `same-window-names' and `same-window-regexps'.

Backward compatibility of the new display-buffer machinery is important,
so for Emacs-24.1 we should focus on making it work with "old code".
For Emacs-24.2 and later, we can switch to eliminating uses of obsolete
vars such as same-window-*.
