Thank you, Ihor. I am a user of alternative `org-goto' interface. I have 
tried default one having a couple of windows in the frame (indirect 
buffer for subtree, indirect for src block). It seems, previous window 
configuration is restored correctly when `org-goto' is finished.

Curiously `org-no-popup' was introduced namely for `org-goto`
