This part

+				    '(display-buffer--maybe-at-bottom
+				      (window-height . (lambda (window)
+					(fit-window-to-buffer window 10)))

would hard-code a new preference which might cause problems indeed.  But
the subsequent

+				      (category . warning)))))

would allow users to customize the display of warnings via
'display-buffer-alist' and cannot harm otherwise.
