The way winfixbuf works is a little different. It's a simple boolean that, when set, will prevent the window from displaying a different buffer. This plugin has both the ability to customize what the behavior is when the window would switch buffers (open in another window by default, but this can be set to some custom user logic). It also allows the "pin" to function for buffers of the same type, instead of a single buffer. For example, if you have help docs open in a window, you may want to be able to switch to other help buffers (since the help docs are spread across many files), but prevent switching to non-help buffers in that window.

So this plugin still provides some functionality that is not present in vanilla Neovim yet, but it does still rely on some hacks.
