Right.  I meant siblings (it was the typical two windows frame I had in
mind).

No.  It's already here via the variable 'window-dead-windows-table'.

You would have to tell me in more detail what 'window-rebuild-tree'
would do.  One thing 'window-tree-pixel-sizes' should then possibly do
is to include the identity of internal windows so 'window-rebuild-tree'
could resurrect them as well.
