Package: emacs-goodies-el
Version: 33.5
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/emacs-goodies-el/tail.el

If you start an M-x tail-file and switch to its *Tail ...* buffer so its
window is the only window in the frame, then when there's some tail to
display the window shrinks to 4 lines, leaving a big status area.

I hoped if the tail buffer is already displayed in a window and that
window is the sole window of its frame then its size would be left
unchanged because there's nothing else to share the frame space with.

Or perhaps any window at all which is already displaying the tail buffer
should not shrink, if case the user has set the size.  Might need to
think that through though.  It might make sense when tail-hide-delay is
a big value, or not automatically hiding at all.
