I think your analysis is correct.

As for how to proceed: I would love for us to have a way of selecting
a window temporarily, in way that doesn't involve saving/restoring its
window-point.  But maybe this is a pipe dream, so I think we should
try your alternative #2 on master and see what it breaks.

Thanks.
