I am sorry, this goes much beyond what I feel confident to comment on.

I got into this when working on BBDB. This uses
Electric-pop-up-window. With Emacs 24.1 this function does not
behave anymore as expected.  Electric-pop-up-window
calls fit-window-to-buffer which calls enlarge-window.

In the meanwhile I learnt from Stefan (bug#11983) that it's probably
best for BBDB (and possibly other packages too) to get rid of all
the Electric-* stuff. So I have not much an opinion with respect to 
fit-window-to-buffer, and there is yet less I could say about
enlarge-window.

Anyway, thanks for looking into this!
