How about having a project-other-window-commands defcustom for C-x 4 p,
and using the entirety of project-prefix-map for C-x 5 p and C-x t t?
C-x 4 p can prompt as per my patch, and C-x 5 p and C-x t t could just
put a static message in the minibuffer like other-frame-prefix and
other-tab-prefix do at present.

Just to clarify: are you proposing this because you really like how the prompt works, yet can't find a good way to incorporate it for the two other prefixes?

I intended to say a bit more: C-x p f has replaced a lot of my use of
C-x b too.  It is very nice not to have to guess whether something is
already visited and just complete across all the project's files.  I use
C-x 4 b a lot so I'm looking forward to C-x 4 p f.

Right! That mirrors my experience: it's often handy to just search across the project files because you're guaranteed to find the needed file, and because there is no ambiguity caused by having only the base name available.

One can also "guess" the eventual file name based on the partial matches in its name and in its parent directories' names.
