Hi,

This is an old bug for changes done in 23 that broke the behaviour of
keeping window point the same in buffers.

https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=4041

It had been suggested to be enabled in subsequent releases, but this
never happened.  AFAICT there has been virtually no mention on this list
of switch-to-buffer-preserve-window-point, and no bugs regarding it
since then. It appears to have been mentioned in Bug#16692.

In both bugs it appears apparent the desire is to make editing the same
buffer in multiple windows more useful.

Mark
