One thing I noticed about this change:

W3M-SELECT-BUFFER-HORIZONTAL-WINDOW defaults to T, which changes the
default behavior of W3M-SESSION-SELECT to display a window
horizontally. The default W3M-SELECT-BUFFER-WINDOW-RATIO of 18% is
too narrow to display the session listing on a 1280 horizontal pixel
screen with a 6 pixel font. I think 18% is too narrow even for 16:9
aspect ratio displays.

In general, a horizontal window will also be too narrow for Emacs in
most virtual terminals/text consoles.

We should change W3M-SELECT-BUFFER-HORIZONTAL-WINDOW to default to
NIL.
