But, as I said before, we first need a mechanism that allows us to establish a connection between such windows and the minibuffer (we could try to fit a window to its buffer _after_ resizing the minibuffer, but it's obvious how fragile such a solution would be). > But I don't think this should be fixed in some general way, treating the > *Completions* or minibuffer window in the same way as any other window.

So we have to find a mechanism to tell the window management part what to do. Fixing window sizes in some "lax" fashion is one way to do that. martin
