Neither do I.

Because Gary has not tested it ;-)

More seriously: I have no idea how 'adjust-window-size-function' and
the function specified by 'window-adjust-process-window-size-function'
work in practice.  If they rely on anything beyond a window's
dimensions (for example, on which other buffers are displayed on a
frame), then not calling 'window--adjust-process-windows' for
'window-configuration-change-hook' might miss something.  I'd rather
reserve such subtleties for Emacs 27.
