But might other uses of a recursive edit break it again?
I guess `when (minibufferp)` can't be removed
from `read-char-from-minibuffer-insert-other`
until all cases below are fixed.

I see, so this problem is more general and not specific to
`read-char-from-minibuffer`?  It would be nice to find
a test case for other commands to confirm that a change in
`recursive_edit_1` fixes them.
