Two examples from (info "(emacs) Yes or No Prompts"):
(y-or-n-p "File ‘foo.el’ exists; overwrite?")
‘C-l’, ‘C-v’, ‘M-v’ work fine and scroll the original buffer.
But yes-or-no-p (BTW, it requires the space char at the end of the prompt):
(yes-or-no-p "Buffer foo.el modified; kill anyway? ")
‘C-l’, ‘C-v’, ‘M-v’ don't scroll the original buffer.
