Actually seems like a really good name.  If I make a function alias,
code in window.el can still use the old name.  Do you prefer that, or
should I replace all uses that I can find in Emacs?

Actually2, we should keep the old name.  A code search on github.com
reveals that other packages/customizations are using the internal
function, too (which now takes one less arg, but if they break for that,
they were really asking for it).
