What if the user clicks into a child frame with the mouse?  Do you have
the frame's 'no-accept-focus' parameter set?  Does it work everywhere?
I never got any feedback on this.

This sounds awfully tricky.  Did you never try to do that in a "cleaner"
way?  Here I _always_ have one single minibuffer window in a child frame
and with the exception of some minor modifications that were necessary
when redirecting frame focus got broken I have no problems.  The child
frame pops up when and where needed and is not visible otherwise.
