Do you have any idea what might be causing it?  Excluding
'display-buffer-split-below-and-attach' it should be related to
'image-mode-new-window-functions'.

It will be public soon.  Moreove, application will not have to bother
with ‘display-buffer-mark-dedicated’ any more.

>>> In addition, in pdf-view-mode this appears in *Message*:

What happened here?  Did the image not get displayed or did the
selected window change or get another buffer?
