As far as I can tell layout.el does a similar thing as winner: (re)storing the window configuration of the complete frame, not storing the complete config and restoring it into an existing window. The function you wrote on the other hand are indeed not the general solutions I'm looking for. They solve my second example, which was not meant as the concrete problem but only an example. I'm looking for a solution that works in the general case.

Still digging, and I think the general solution could be switch-to-buffer-other-frame if 'from' is a frame and 'to' is another frame
