second emacsclient file argument ends up in buried buffer |

Wben one gives more than one filename argument to emacsclient (-n), the
second file ends up in a buried buffer. One would instead expect them
both to be visible. Well at least the emacsclient man page should
document what will happen. I'm trying to say
$ emacsclient ... ...
should act the same as
$ emacs ... ...
in how the files end up displayed.

OK, agreed. I'll close this bug and open a -nw bug. Thanks.
