In addition I still think it might be worth explicitly making display-buffer a no-op in batch mode, unless someone can think of something it can actually do in such cases. I think this could only be by side effect. Eg, can it run hooks, and can those hooks be expected to do anything when there isn't actually a display? If not then it seems simpler and more efficient to not even try displaying buffers in batch mode (and less confusing, since it can give unclear errors trying to do something that cannot work).
