Do you suppose it might be sensible to rename `minibuffer-inactive-mode'
to `minibuffer-local-mode' right away (or `minibuffer-mode',
`minibuffer-base-mode', or some such)? While preserving the old name as
an alias, of course.
Right now, unless overridden by eshell or another package like it, the
minibuffer is always in `minibuffer-inactive-mode', and it's kind of
confusing that an active minibuffer calls itself inactive when you ask
for its major mode.
