There are commands that set point while the buffer is not displayed,
and after displaying the buffer point remains at an old position,
not where it was moved while the buffer was undisplayed.

One solution is to generalize the variable 'help-window-point-marker'
currently described as:

  ;; `help-window-point-marker' is a marker you can move to a valid
  ;; position of the buffer shown in the help window in order to override
  ;; the standard positioning mechanism (`point-min') chosen by
  ;; `with-output-to-temp-buffer' and `with-temp-buffer-window'.
  ;; `with-help-window' has this point nowhere before exiting.  Currently
  ;; used by `view-lossage' to assert that the last keystrokes are always
  ;; visible.
  (defvar help-window-point-marker (make-marker)
    "Marker to override default `window-point' in help windows.")

A general name could be e.g. 'window-point-marker'.  Its counterpart is
also necessary with the name 'window-start-marker'.

Beside the recently occurred need in bug#35624 to use a new buffer-local
variable for window-start, other modes require this feature as well,
e.g. vc-annotate takes a long time to finish and set window point, but
after switching forth and back, it doesn't set point to the right line
after the buffer becomes visible.

That's a feature, isn't it?  See switch-to-buffer-preserve-window-point.

Why not bind switch-to-buffer-preserve-window-point to nil instead?

IIUC, it tries to preserve the previous position of window-point,
but the required feature should set point when the buffer
is displayed for the first time.

I don't know.  I tried to replace

  (set-marker help-window-point-marker (point))

with

  (goto-char (point-max))
  (setq-local switch-to-buffer-preserve-window-point nil)

and it doesn't set point to the end of the Help buffer
when it's displayed for the first time.

Can you show a recipe starting from "emacs -Q" that exhibits this
behavior.  It sounds like I'm confused about what exactly happens.

0. emacs -Q
1. C-h l

Then point in the *Help* buffer should be at the bottom,
but when setting switch-to-buffer-preserve-window-point to nil
instead of using set-marker, point still is at the top of the buffer.

Dmitry reverted my patch in bug#35624 because of no progress here,

help-window-point-marker to a more general variable useful
not only in the Help buffer but everywhere, and all my tests show
that it works well:

OK.  But

-;; (4) A marker (`help-window-point-marker') to move point in the help
+;; (4) A marker (`window-point') to move point in the help
  ;;     window to an arbitrary buffer position.

sounds irritating IMHO.  If it's used for help windows only, then why
rename it?  Otherwise, we should at least leave the '-marker' postfix
and provide some additional identification so maybe use something like
'temp-buffer-window-point-marker'

It's generalized now to be used not only for help windows.
The '-marker' postfix is not needed because it can be either
marker or integer, i.e. any value that set-window-point accepts
for its POSITION argument.

What do you think about a more appropriate name
next-display-window-point?  This name says that its effect
will occur at the next display of the buffer in the window.

Then the comment above is misleading.

Hmmm.  "...-window-point-position" sounds silly.

Generalizing 'help-window-point-marker' is problematic.  "at the next
display of the buffer in the window" says it already: What is the
"next display" (should it be "redisplay"?) which "buffer" and which
"window" are meant?

Generalized version does exactly what 'help-window-point-marker'
used to do, i.e.:

  ;; `help-window-point-marker' is a marker you can move to a valid
  ;; position of the buffer shown in the help window in order to override
  ;; the standard positioning mechanism (`point-min') chosen by
  ;; `with-output-to-temp-buffer' and `with-temp-buffer-window'.
  ;; `with-help-window' has this point nowhere before exiting.  Currently
  ;; used by `view-lossage' to assert that the last keystrokes are always
  ;; visible.
  (defvar help-window-point-marker (make-marker)
    "Marker to override default `window-point' in help windows.")

but for all windows instead of only help windows, i.e.:

    "Marker to override default `window-point' in all windows."

So do you think about just removing the prefix `help-' from the name:
`window-point-marker'?

Currently 'temp-buffer-window-show' has

       (goto-char (point-min))

and 'internal-temp-output-buffer-show' has

	  (set-window-start window (point-min) t)
	  ;; This should not be necessary.
	  (set-window-point window (point-min))

For help windows (windows showing *Help*) 'help-window-point-marker'
allows to override these assignments by a suitable assignment for that
variable.  It's hackish but still done in a pretty restricitve fashion
as follows.

First 'help-window-point-marker' is reset in 'with-help-window' via

      ;; Make `help-window-point-marker' point nowhere.  The only place
      ;; where this should be set to a buffer position is within BODY.
      (set-marker help-window-point-marker nil)

- a security guard, because that marker should be nil at that time
anyway.

Then 'help-window-point-marker' may be set by the BODY of
'with-help-window' and 'help-window-setup' will pick that up guarded
as

       (when (eq (marker-buffer help-window-point-marker) help-buffer)
	(set-window-point window help-window-point-marker)
	;; Reset `help-window-point-marker'.
	(set-marker help-window-point-marker nil))

thus (1) checking whether the marker buffer matches and (2)
immediately resetting that marker to nil.

Can you provide equivalent security guards when generalizing that
variable?  For example, you proposed

  (defun window--display-buffer (buffer window type &optional alist)
    "Display BUFFER in WINDOW.
[...]
+
+      (when window-start
+        (set-window-start window window-start)
+        (setq window-start nil))
+
+      (when window-point
+        (set-window-point window window-point)
+        (setq window-point nil))

What happens with these markers when 'display-buffer-no-window' gets
called?  Or some user provided routine provokes an unhandled error?
You don't even check the marker buffer of these variables so some old,
completely unrelated marker could get reused here.

The *Help* buffer is special because it's used in a centralized way
for any help Emacs provides (that's also why it has a browsable
history).  Buffers displayed by 'display-buffer' OTOH don't obey any
such restricitions.  They don't even have a BODY as the only place
where markers as the ones you propose can be set.

Also 'temp-buffer-window-show' and 'internal-temp-output-buffer-show'
are special because they explicitly wants to set window point to BOB.
So there's some predefined mechanism we (1) are aware of and (2) want
to override deliberately.

So we'd carefully have to examine first how the mechanism you propose
could be abused, how to handle any errors in using and failing to
reset these markers and last but not least tell why we don't provide
'window-point' and 'window-start' action alist entries instead of such
global variables.

BTW, there is a strange comment before the first line:

	  ;; Don't try this with NOFORCE non-nil!
	  (set-window-start window (point-min) t)

but its NOFORCE is non-nil here.  Is this a FIXME-like reminder?

In my previous patch there is no need to check for the buffer,
because a new general variable is declared as buffer-local.

There is no global effect because this feature is localized
to a single buffer by its buffer-local scope.

We could support an action alist too in addition to buffer-local variables,
but we should leave an ability to set buffer-local variables, because
neither view-lossage nor vc-git-print-log (two primary cases to test
this feature) have no access to the 'action' arg of display-buffer.

Rather a FIXME-like remainder.  I probably did try to fix something
here but don't recall any more if the comment applied to the version
before that fix or should apply to the present version (in which case
it is obviously wrong).

But the BUFFER argument of 'window--display-buffer' is not necessarily
the current buffer.  Or do I miss something?

We would always have to assure that the marker's buffer and the
current buffer are the same.  And we would have to make sure the
marker gets reset when an unhandled error occurs.

Maybe we could provide a new macro which encapsulates the use of these
variables in a more disciplied fashion (providing the necessary action
arguments for `display-buffer').

Assured in a new patch.

Frankly speaking, macros like with-help-window, with-temp-buffer-window
are terribly ugly and look like a kludge.  For example, after applying
the following patch, all source files that use the changed macro,
need to be recompiled, so everyone will need to do bootstrap after
pushing it, and many other problems.  I see no reason to use macros here.
We need to replace these macros with the elegant solution that we already
have of using action alists.

Name space conventions would recommend 'window-delayed-point'.

 > +  "Marker to override default `window-point' in all windows.

Why "marker" and why "all windows"?  As for the former, I think it
makes sense because then one can specify an insertion type as well.
But IIRC you earlier wanted to allow plain integers here too?

 > +`delayed-window-point' is a buffer-local marker you can move to a valid

IIUC there is no such "mechanism" except for buffers just created.
And what about 'switch-to-buffer-preserve-window-point'?  "window ???
displaying functions" implicitly hints at the fact that the mechanism
works only when the buffer is shown by 'display-buffer'.  But are we
sure that this restriction always applies?

Otherwise the patch looks good.

Until Lars comes up with a solution that detects any changed macros,
finds their users, and orderly recompiles the respective files.  But
I'm afraid he's turning back to his books for now.

Macros are useful in as much as they allow to specify the evaluation
order of their arguments.  Action alists are dumb in this regard.

Then 'window-delayed-start' would be too ambiguous.  Maybe then
'window-start-delayed' and 'window-point-delayed'.

Yes, plain integers should be allowed as well.

Maybe the same should be allowed for 'switch-to-buffer' as well,
and even for buffers displayed by set-window-configuration.

The problem is that currently the whole cycle of buffer displaying
doesn't allow executing arbitrary code at different stages:
there are no pre-display-buffer and post-display-buffer hooks.

Adding such hooks would allow to get rid of macros easily.
For example, instead of using two variables 'window-point-delayed'
and 'window-start-delayed', a pre-display hook in 'view-lossage'
will be able just to set a buffer-local run-once post-display hook
that will adjust the window positions after the buffer is displayed
in the window.

Another candidate that can be placed into such post-display hook is
fit-window-to-buffer for cases when adding an action alist
as an arg of display-buffer call is not possible.

And vice versa, pre/post-display actions could be specified
in an action alist of display-buffer, when using hooks is not possible.

The problem is to properly clear these hooks to avoid that they affect
future, unrelated calls of 'display-buffer'.  In most cases they are
supposed to be one-shots so a 'condition-case' in 'display-buffer'
should suffice, but it's a bit abnormal for hooks to get auto-cleared.

... miss one aspect: 'display-buffer-overriding-action' can always be
used to set and/or override any 'window-point' or 'window-start' alist
