Hi, Emacs!
When the command loop processes an (interactive "@"), it throws an error
when the pertinent mouse event was in an "inactive" minibuffer.
This is when (amongst other things)
minibuf_level > 0
. This is equivalent to the lisp
(> (minibuffer-depth) 0)
. Would somebody please give me a quick tip, and tell me how to
generate a non-zero minibuffer-depth. Thanks in advance!

(setq enable-recursive-minibuffers t)
M-x
M-: (minibuffer-depth) RET
=> 1

Thanks, that's just the job! To trigger the error handling, I had to
create a second frame.
