| This suggestion, I am afraid, is just plain stupid, emacs or no.

| You don't want the command window replaced with the window you just
| said B about.
Oh come now: Emacs doesn't let you replace the minibuffer either. If
there is no file window open, then you would get a fresh one, just as
if you had clicked button-3. Otherwise, the previously selected file
window would be covered with a new one.
| It's not broken and doesn't need any fixing.
I wasn't suggesting that anyone start hacking on it, only pointing out
that there are alternatives to the current style interface.
(p.s. I typed this with vi, so there. :-)
