[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
The function 'term' use actually 'switch-to-buffer'. I think it's better
to let users decide where the window will appear with
'display-buffer-alist' or 'display-buffer-base-action', and so, to use
'display-buffer'.

This would change the behaviour considerably from the current one, so I
don't think this would fly.  But we could use
`pop-to-buffer-same-window', I guess?
