It doesn't sound too serious to me, FWIW (but then I never use minibuffer-only frames). I'd really like to release Emacs 26.2 VSN; the bug reports about recent regressions or serious bugs all but ceased to arrive, so I think we have a stable branch. Installing non-trivial (by their effect) changes is something I'd like to avoid if possible.
