Thank you for this feedback Alexey!

Oh, it's not a token here, it just checks if the reset_win extension
exists. The token would be returned in *value, but since we did not
need it here, it's not copied.

I can't see it being used uninitialized here, as you said it's tied to
default_win.
Could you please tell me how it can be used uninitialized here, or what
is bad by doing this way?

Yes, I agree.

Moving 'page_size selection' above 'checking windows available' will
need us to duplicate the 'page_size selection' after the new query,
inside the if.
I mean, as query will be done again, it will need to get the (new) page
size.

I did all changes suggested locally and did some analysis in the
result:

I did not see a way to put default_win and reset_win_ext inside
"if (query.windows_available == 0)", because if we still need a way to
know if the default window was removed, and if so, restore in case
anything ever fails ahead (like creating the node property).

But from that analysis I noted it's possible to remove all the new
"goto out_restore_defwin", if we do default_win = NULL if
ddw_read_ext() fails.

So testing only default_win should always be enough to say if the
default window was deleted, and reset_win_ext could be moved inside "if
(query.windows_available == 0)".
Also, it would avoid reset_win_ext being 'used uninitialized' and
"out_restore_defwin:" would not be needed.

Against the current patch, we would have something like this:

Ok, I have no problem rebasing on top of those patchsets, but what
would you suggest to be done?

Would it be ok doing a big multi-author patchset, so we guarantee it
being applied in the correct order?

(You probably want me to rebase my patchset on top of Hellwig + yours,
right?)
