I think that it should still be possible to `display' the disabled
buffer - however, rather than trying to display the actual buffer
contents, the effect should be an window showing a message like this
THIS BUFFER CANNOT BE SHOWN DUE TO INTERNAL PROBLEMS
You may still save and try to modify the buffer
This seems like a good extension of the feature. However, it probably
requires additional expertise in the display code. I could do the
simpler version of the idea pretty easily; I would not be sure how to
add this extension.
Does anyone want to volunteer to do this who knows how?
Otherwise, I should probably do the part I know how to do.
