I update my suggestion:
C-x _ shrink-window
C-x - shrink-window-if-larger-than-buffer
C-x ^ enlarge-window
AFAIK C-x _ is currently free. Then we would keep the olds bindings for
`shrink-window-if-larger-than-buffer' and `enlarge-window' but we would
also have a key for `shrink-window', which sounds an improvement to me.
Idea?
