Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen. You don't know how to make a good report? See
http://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback
Your bug report will be posted to the Org-mode mailing list.

The org-no-popups macro (which is leveraged by '
org-switch-to-buffer-other-window' let-binds key variables such as
"display-buffer-alist" to 'nil'.
This ultimately prevents a user from
customising pop-ups generated by org in the same way they would with
other pop-up windows.
(have not shared my org-config as it is not really relevant to the issue
here -- others are also seeing the same problem per the stack exchange
questions I posted)

I'm not a big fan of Org's opinionated way to handle windows either.
However, couldn't you use `display-buffer-overriding-action' in this
case? It is checked before `display-buffer-alist'.

I worked around it by using an elisp ‘advice’ snippet another user suggested (http://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/17112/prevent-org-todo-pop-up-window-from-displaying-in-new-frame-dedicated-window)
Before that I wasted several hours trying to ‘fix’ the problem in various ways. I imagine org is overriding default handling for a good reason, but it is frustrating to have to override said functionality with a code-snippet, which will undoubtedly break at some point while I scratch my head to understand how I can fix it!
