Maybe show the code you intend to use and how the user could override it
with 'shrink-window-if-larger-than-buffer' in 'display-buffer-alist'.

OK.

Currently, we don't have to bother anyway.  The only client of this is
'display-buffer-below-selected' and that hardly produces a horizontal
combination.

> Thanks, I'll test it.  Does it need more args from fit-window-to-buffer?

None that I know of.
