Copying the alist seems perfectly fine to me.  This said, while we're
copying, we may as well filter at the same time: Emacs-23 did not
preserve parameters, so rather than preserving them all, we could make
Emacs-24 preserve only those params mentioned in a new var
`window-configuration-saved-parameters'.  For all I know, this new var
might even be shared with `window-state-saved-parameters'.
