FWIW I am using this feature in one of my packages
(https://github.com/minad/consult/). I expect the window configuration
to be restored when the minibuffer session is left. One of my commands
previews buffers when selecting them during completing-read. However
packages which do something like this can also be adjusted accordingly
to save and restore the configuration manually if the decision is made
to change this behavior.
