With (at least) emacs 19.28 there is a special variable that can be set
which allows a buffer to be displayed in a separate frame when emacs
attempts to display that buffer. Here are the docs for
special-display-buffer-name. (It does work, I just checked.)
special-display-buffer-names's value is nil
Documentation:
*List of buffer names that should have their own special frames.
Displaying a buffer whose name is in this list makes a special frame for it
using `special-display-function'. See also `special-display-regexps'.
