Most often, I just want to bury the buffer, not delete it. Your two
examples of buffers you want to delete are buffers I tend to want to
look at again, the ones created by `M-x compile' and `C-h f'
(describe-function).
To me, it looks that you want `C-x 4 0' (kill-buffer-and-window) to be
documented more prominently. What would you like specifically?
Put another way, how should we change the documentation in
(emacs)Change Window? Right now `C-x 4 0' is third in the sequence,
after `C-x 0' and `C-x 1'. That looks right to me.
