bug#65558: 30.0.50; project-other-{window,frame,tab}-command a bit too obtrusive

[Pengji Zhang]

Thanks for the pointer! That is a long thread so I only skimmed it. I
think you meant this snippet in [0]:

That indeed fixes the issue. My only concern is that
`other-window-prefix' is a new function introduced in Emacs 28.
