Description

I have a problem of multi-term dedicated window.

When I open multi-term dedicated window, implicitly create new window when I open new file(buffer).

Process:

  1. open A.txt file (window No.1)
  2. multi-term-dedicated-open (window created for multi-term) (window No.2)
  3. open B.txt file (window No.3) (I'm not want new window)

I want to open B.txt to window No.1. But after I opened multi-term-dedicated-window, not working like this.
And when I close multi-term-dedicated-window, have no issues.

Research direction

Start by tracing the multi-term-dedicated-open entry point and the window behavior when a new buffer is opened after it. Reproduce the A.txt, dedicated terminal, and B.txt sequence; done means B.txt opens in the original window instead of an implicitly created third window.
