By all means. I just felt it was my "duty" to point out what might (or
might not) be an oversight in the design.

Yes after a day of use, I can say that `temp-buffer-resize-mode'
provides much better behaviour (IMO), and properly supports the type of
use cases I mentioned.

However the point is moot (for this user at least), because with your
code from bug#23093, viz.

    (customize-set-variable
     'display-buffer-alist
     '(("\\*Completions\\*" display-buffer-pop-up-window)))

I get my completions buffer on the right half of my frame, and it would
not make sense for that to change size (I wouldn't like it, anyway), so
I won't need to use `temp-buffer-resize-mode'.

Thanks.

Regards,
N.
