SAFE is set by the `clone-frame-root-window-tree' to avoid that windows
present in the original configration get deleted during cloning because
they are too small. Traditionally, this is achieved by binding
window-min-height|width to 1 but I don't like that (mainly because I
want to hanlde buffer-local values for window-min-height|width).
INVERT is for example needed to create a view window on the left side of
an editor area built from vertically split windows.

It's because window groups are currently rooted at internal windows.
Richard already convinced me that it shall be removed. But I have to
revise my invariants first before changing my code.
