If that's all, just add ‘display-buffer-no-window’ to
‘display-buffer--action-function-custom-type’ as I suggested before.
(BTW Juri should have done that when he added that function.) But
Reuben replied
It would be nice if the user only had to change one thing to enable hiding
the async output buffer until there is output. If we only added the
function to display-buffer--action-function-custom-type, the user still has
to manually add the right buffer name pattern and the action to
display-buffer-alist.

And how should ‘display-buffer’ know whether "there's some material" in
that buffer?
