Yes, I thought so too that maybe better would be to use minibuffer-with-setup-hook. I tried this code, and it works well. > or something similar.

The problem is that there is another self-inserting key that can be used for text editing: '?' is bound to minibuffer-completion-help. Maybe then the variable could be named e.g. minibuffer-self-insert?
