It makes no sense to bind window navigation commands windmove-left/right
to a sequence that is longer than 'C-x o'.  However, for consistency with
other existing commands in the 'C-x 4' keymap that are used to display
a buffer in another window it makes sense to bind window directional display
commands windmove-display-left/right to 'C-x 4 left/right'.  This would be
very useful to be able to override the default choice that is always
the least recently used window that often not what you want to use.
