I still don't get why you need to know whether the image-mode buffer
comes to top in order to decide on resizing the image.

There should not be any such guarantee.

This must be a bug but I don't understand how it could happen.
'switch-to-prev-buffer' calls 'set-window-buffer-start-and-point'
which calls 'set-window-buffer' which calls 'record-window-buffer'
which should call 'buffer-list-update-hook'.  Can you trace while it
fails for you?

Thanks, martin
