Thanks!
It seems to work, although somewhat different than I described.

With your diff, in case (2), if BUFFER is what is passed to
`pop-to-buffer' and BUFFER2 is indirectly related buffer displayed in a
visible window, then BUFFER2 is replaced with BUFFER. I expected that
BUFFER2's window will be selected; nothing more.
