Is the list of previous buffers empty in step 12 ?  Then we could
heuristically show the last buffer added to the list of next buffers
here.  Preferring a buffer which is not on any of this window's lists
doesn't make much sense in this case, I think.

I guess that this scenario would also break the recipe you proposed
earlier, namely to keep next and previous buffers as lists built from
elements of the same type and not choose an element from the next
buffers when quitting.
