yes, it's reasonable

it's could be just *any* buffer

then, I think that we could fall back to *scratch*

I don't think that it's will be useful for users to customise, but who knows...

Here the scenario:
I want new frames to switch to some buffer so I added hook to
`after-make-frame-functions'.
Inside this hook I do `(switch-to-buffer <some-buffer>)' the window on this
frame is switched to that <some-buffer> at first, but after a short time it's
switched to *scratch*. So as I think it would be better that
`after-make-frame-functions' will be called after this 'default switching to
*scratch* behaviour' is performed. And than will be no need for me to
add code to server.el.
// New version:
          (unless (or files commands)
            (let ((type (type-of initial-buffer-choice))
                  (buf "*scratch*"))
              (cond
               ((eq 'string type) (setq buf (find-file-noselect initial-buffer-choice)))
               ((eq 'buffer type) (when (buffer-live-p initial-buffer-choice)
                              
      (setq buf initial-buffer-choice))))
              (switch-to-buffer (get-buffer-create buf) 'norecord)))
