The starting window must contain a non-read-only file buffer since this is where the new button will be placed and saved. The ending window should contain something that can be displayed in future Emacs sessions. The point of release determines the action type choices you are given when creating the button; if only one choice is determined then that is used without prompting. There is a function named something like hui:link-directly that manages this process.
