Juri, could you please share your opinion about this proposal?  you
worked on changes related to this issues a lot lately, so you probably
know about this more than anyone else.  Do you see any problem with
the above?  If workable, I think its advantage is that it minimizes
behavior changes, while preserving the main traits of the solution: to
avoid obscuring minibuffer prompts by asynchronous messages.

TIA
