The best option is to remove the need for (non const) access to this

there's some way to go before that...
Not sure I agree here. A buffer is _the_ kernel structure. A list of
them can hardly be a GUI thinmg then...
Hum, in my mind the frontend is not limited to the GUI; the GUI is part
of it. The frontend handles the process initialisation/running/exiting.
Creating a new buffer is something that the frontend asks so it is
natural that it also keep a list of them. This is a matter of taste perhaps.
