When I changed proced to use fit-window-to-buffer, this change was
inspired by the changed code of dired-pop-to-buffer. Later I
realized that this doesn't always give the old behavior of
dired-pop-to-buffer which in my opinion was more appropriate than
the new code (but I hadn't found time yet to look into this more
carefully). So yes, I agree that probably it would be best to have a
function that gives the old behavior which can be used by both dired
and proced. And maybe the new function will be useful for other
packages, too.
