Excellent, I'll do this.

I am not sure to understand this: you can already restore the initial
configuration by pressing `r' repeatedly until you reach this config.

Maybe we could save the initial configuration separately and restore it
with a dedicated key like `_'.

Or better: only validate the visible window configuration (with last
changes) if the user quit the mode with C-c C-c.  If the user quit the
mode with C-g or q (or C-c ESC), then the initial configuration will be
restored.

What do you think?
