Which is to beep and flash at least with regard to C-f at the end of
line in the minibuffer. That is not particularly useful. However, I
doubt that people will be overenthusiastic if using C-f and autorepeat
will not just get them to the end of the line, but yank random stuff
while fouling up window-point of the buffer in question.

And you can copy it before starting your minibuffer command.
