Hmm... yeah, there is that problem.

Perhaps your function could be extended to take a point, like
`pos-fully-visible-in-window-p'?  Then lisp functions could just do

  (while (not (pos-fully-visible-in-window-p (point-max)))
    (enlarge-window 1))

[I've always felt that pos-visible-in-window-p should return nil if the
position is partially obscured; unfortunately, that might screw things
up because the normal lisp scrolling functions don't give you any
control over partially visible lines (I've tried playing around with
set-window-vscroll, but it never seems to act consistently).]
