Now I, Teika, am back.

Can I ask one more question? (One is solved by Timo.)
In the above patch, call to 'iconify-window' is done quite early,
just before before-add-window-hook. There, window set up is not complete.

The doc on before-add-window-hook says:
# This occurs before the window is created, installed or placed.  At
# this early stage, the only safe action is to set properties of the
# window (with `window-set').

As far as I tried, it seems to work, but is it really safe?

Thanks beforhand.

I can't answer this right now. More difficult than I thought.
