Of course, it should switch back to the help buffer
without deleting the window.

3" should not delete the window.
Everything should work exactly as it already works in the simplest case:
(0) Run `emacs -Q'.
(1) Pop up the help window. `C-h f car RET C-x o'
(2) Reuse the window to display info. `C-h i'
(3) In that window display some other buffer. `C-h C-t'
(4) Kill that other buffer. `C-x k RET'
The previous buffer "*info*" is displayed in this window.
(5) Quit info. `q'
The previous buffer "*Help*" is displayed in this window.
(6) Type `q'
The window is deleted.
IOW, we should not invent a new behavior, just fix some cases
(that I mentioned earlier where selecting another windows messes up
the global buffer list and thus detaches the buffer from its original
window). I believe that using a window parameter `buffer-list'
will help to fix this.
