M-x widget-complete RET (See bug #6830 - the completion candidates are the files in the current dir, not the files in c:/.) You now have two windows in the only frame: (1) Customize, (2) *Completions*. Still with point in the edit field of the Customize buffer: M-x report-emacs-bug RET fffffffffff RET In the only existing frame, you now have two windows: (1) *Bug Help*, (2) *Completions*, with the first of these selected. The only important buffer to show at this point is completely hidden: *unsent mail to bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org*. No way for a user to report the bug, unless s?he knows both (a) that there is a buffer somewhere, waiting for user input to report the bug and (b) how to show that buffer. Not very user-friendly. This is a regression starting with Emacs 23. (It worked OK in Emacs 22 and before, but you will need to tweak the recipe - e.g. use `custom-file' and choose `File' from the Value menu.)
