There are some packages that works displaying a certain number of lines
on the echo area (ido-grid-mode, for instance.) They set
max-mini-window-height to an integer and expect that Emacs will take
care of resizing the echo area accordingly, if possible. If the
resulting echo area is not tall enough, there is a problem.
IMO max-mini-window-height, when set to an integer, should mean "I want
this many lines", as it does when line-spacing is nil. Otherwise every
one of those packages must implement the heuristics for taking into
account `line-spacing' and any other present and future variable that
might affect the number of lines visible on the echo area.
