Subject: | bug#48153: 28.0.50; minor mode keymaps should not override keymap given to read-from-minibuffer |

Why would they not? The minibuffer behaves, in that respect, like any other buffer. Note that they do so only when the minor mode is enabled in the minibuffer.Because the minibuffer does not behave like any other buffers. Setting `minor-mode-overriding-map-alist` has no effect, so I think either the minibuffer really needs to behave like any other buffer, or special-cased and documented the ways it differs from regular buffers.I admit that I've lost the context in this discussion. I'm CC'ing Stefan in the hope he could tell whether we do or don't have a problem here; if Stefan is unable to do that, either, we will unfortunately have to get back to the beginning and explain what kind of problems the current behavior causes. Because in general what Jimmy described in the original report sounds the expected behavior to me.
I admit I'm lost, too. The description of the problem has changed several times, and what was described in the original report is the actual behavior. Of course I may be missing something; I'm not fortunate enough to have a crystal ball, like Stefan ;-)
