I imagine a list of prev/next-buffers as the tab-bar:
[buffer-A] [buffer-B] [buffer-C] [buffer-D] [buffer-E]
prev-buffers current-buffer next-buffers
Using switch-to-buffer adds a new buffer after the current "tab", e.g.
[buffer-A] [buffer-B] [buffer-C] [new-buffer] [buffer-D] [buffer-E]
prev-buffers current-buffer next-buffers
But displaying a temporary buffer could add a "tab" to the end of the
tab-bar, this means at the end of the list of next-buffers:
[buffer-A] [buffer-B] [buffer-C] [buffer-D] [buffer-E] [temp-buffer]
prev-buffers current-buffer
After exiting from this temporary buffer, it could be kept in the
list of next-buffers:
[buffer-A] [buffer-B] [buffer-C] [buffer-D] [buffer-E] [temp-buffer]
prev-buffers current-buffer next-buffers
Then returning to prev-buffers (e.g. with kill-buffer) will not visit
this temporary buffer. But display-buffer-reuse-window could look for
a previously displayed buffer in the list of next buffers.

We could have a general shorter name like 'dir', and more specific
longer names like 'select-dir' and 'split-dir'. If no long entries
are found, then fall back to a shorter name.
