Yes.  But I think some people would want that -- that is, they might be
`C-g'-ing out of the minubuffer just because they want to copy some of
the text in the completions buffer.

But on the other hand, that may be such a rare thing to do that just
applying your proposed patch is the right thing, and then we could just
see whether anybody actually requests that before tinkering any further
with it...

So...  I think you should just push the patch, and then we'll see.
