While we're on the subject of usability, Slime is now annoyingly insistent about popping up the compile window in the current frame, even when it's already visible in another window, and even when you've tried to suppress it. e.g. reading mail during a compile, it will repeatedly replace the message buffer. I suggest one of two changes, but prefer the first:
* pop the compile buffer up once for any compile command, rather than doing so on any output.
* change the comint-output-filter-functions function we add to use "(get-buffer-window (current-buffer) t)" instead of "(get-buffer-window (current-buffer)" so that it will find the buffer in another frame.
