Most often I just enter "M-%%<(- number-of-windows 1> C-x o", however
this is pretty much the same as window-number (which I'm very happy to
find out about).
Another thing I do pretty often is just re-split the windows. For
example
--------------------
| | |
| | |
| | |
| 1 | 2 |
| | |
| | |
| | |
--------------------
C-x 1 in window 2
--------------------
| |
| |
| |
| 2 |
| |
| |
| |
--------------------
C-x 3 C-x o C-x b #<buffer 1>
--------------------
| | |
| | |
| | |
| 2 | 1 |
| | |
| | |
| | |
--------------------
Window configurations are not sacred and manipulating them is easy. I
could make this into "exchange-windows" but it's easy enough as it is
(the above takes about 1 second on a slow day).

Usually I've found that these trivial things are difficult or have not
been implemented because it's better to do something else. However,
Emacs is all about freedom, so do it!
