Alternatively, always name the buffer *Occur*, but provide a occur-save-buffer
command (bound to `s') which renames the buffer to *Occur: buffer*; then the
user can easily save precious occur buffers on a needed basis.

The same could be done for *Help* buffers where it would sometimes be very
useful to keep multiple help buffer around, e.g. *Help: save-buffer* and
*Help: bury-buffer*.
