It all depends how you define "prompt issue".  If you define it as "the 
prompt should be visible unless it's impossible", then it is gone in 
something like 99% of the cases.  If you define it as "the prompt should 
generally be visible but can in some rare cases be hidden", then it is 
totally gone.

With the former definition however, Ergus' solution does not solve all the 
1% remaining cases.  The only correct solution to solve all these 1% 
remaining cases is to ask redisplay to start displaying the minibuffer at 
beginning of buffer (point-min).
