Dimitri already saves and restores the window configuration.  This
should handle "weakly" dedicated windows.  If he also wants to handle
strongly dedicated windows, `set-window-buffer' will barf anyway - he
has to reset the status manually for each window and have the restore
step take care of setting it again.
