Why not to allow such constraints for subtypes? E.g.
subtype Valid_Window_Type is Window_Type when Is_Valid;
then simply:
procedure Do_Something (Window : Valid_Window_Type; ...)

Yes, but I do prefer the subtypes as the vehicle, rather than arbitrary
preconditions put here and there on the subprograms. The latter is kind of
weak typing to me.
