Setting it to t by default and _not_ binding it individually will have
detrimental consequences for people who don't want it always t.  Juanma
wants it always t because he wants to control the layout of his windows.
I'm more sloppy in this respect.  Hence if we choose to handle this via
`window-nest' we should bind that individually.

You could try writing a suitable buffer display function ;-)

I forgot about these.  Must have been some quick random search.
