Well at least after the discussion, I understand that it wasn't a bug that 't
option was left out from window-list :). As said in my first mail; I was
suspicios what it wasn't implemented the way I patched from the beginning, since
whomever implemented window_candidate_p had to be aware of it.

Also passing the 't to the original version, does end up in somewhat cryptic
message that the window is on a different frame. Perhaps that error message
could be somewhat more clear, but since it has been so for many years, I guess
it is not as important, otherwise other people would have screamed long time
ago.
