The original example looks odd to me, but I may just be misunderstanding
the window machinery (not for the first time).

But:

(display-buffer-below-selected
 (current-buffer)
 '((window-min-height . 10)
   (window-height . fit-window-to-buffer)))

I'd expect that to work as you describe (or perhaps with the alist in
opposite order), and it doesn't.  Perhaps Martin has some comments;
added to the CCs.
