Report from roughly two and half years ago was about "<monster>
opens the door" without displaying <monster>.
Monster movement first decides whether a monster can pass closed
door. If so, the monster is placed at the door spot, a message
is given about that movement (unlock, open, smash down, &c), and
finally the map is updated.
Changing the sequence to update the map before issuing the door
message was not sufficient to fix this. In the corridor plus
closed door plus lit room map fragment shown here, when 'O' moved
to '+', you would see it there if the hero is at '1' or '2', but
not if at '3', '4', or '5'; open door was shown instead. But the
message described 'O' accurately rather than as "it" for all those
hero locations.

For 3,4,5 the #vision command shows the closed door as 3 before
the O move, but blank (0) after. In other words, the closed door
is within line of sight but once opened, the doorway spot isn't.
It makes sense that the closed door behaves like a wall but I'm
not sure whether the behavior for an open door's breach does too.
I had an awful workaround that successfully displayed the monster,
but it wouldn't show the same thing if the door was already open,
so I've changed the situation to yield "You see a door open."
