Before, even with multiple emacsclients, vm knew to always keep the summary
buffer and the presentation buffer in the same client.

Now 8.1.0 seems to do the opposite. It preferentially uses the entire
screen for the summary buffer and leaves the presentation buffer open on
another emacsclient instance (and vica-versa). To get them back on a
single screen, I need to manually split the screen and then manually
switch buffers.

Perhaps there is some new vm variable that causes this behavior but if
so the default behavior should not be changed without documentation.

This is *extremely* annoying.
