IIRC it was introduced before the new display-buffer-alist and its
action alists. Also it's a global variable because I needed it to apply
to "normal" buffers (rather than those matched by
special-display-regexps), so it needs to go to
display-buffer-base-action which had no equivalent back then.

Of course: when set to `soft`, it's marked as `soft-dedicated` when
created, so as soon as some other buffer is displayed, the dedication
is removed.

I'm not sure what to say there. The intended behavior is just as it is
described: to mark windows as dedicated when they're created.
