That's my point. There is no reliable way to distinguish if we are dealing with a quickfix or a location window. Considering that you have to use different set of commands to handle these windows, this information has to be easily obtainable. But as of right now, it's not the case. w:quickfix_window can be modified, which means it is not a reliable source. Also status line uses buf_spname() function that is not exposed via API and as Bram mentioned returns values that are translated.
