And I always agreed on that.  But IIUC this approach was not applied
on all bugs whose numbers I previously mentioned.

Can that be annoying in practice?

None probably.  We could build into it some trickery (to not revert
the configuration or make a new frame visible under certain
conditions) but I doubt this would work out very well in all cases.
