The caller of 'display-buffer' could bind 'window-min-height' to
another value around the call.  But that's a bad idea because it may
override a user customization and because a high value would not allow
a window to be created even if other windows would tolerate the lower
value while a low value would allow other windows to shrink to that
value as well when a new window is created.

Couldn't setting a 'window-height' action alist entry help here?
Maybe with a suitable function?
