Maybe that's worth borrowing, too? I think it would be better in the minibuffer to reproduce the default behavior of these keys in an ordinary Emacs buffer. Typing in the middle of the last line (that doesn't end with a newline) moves point to the end of the line. This is similar to Firefox's behavior. However, typing in the middle of the first line in an ordinary Emacs buffer doesn't move point to the beginning of the first line. I don't know why do we have such inconsistency and whether we should reproduce it in the minibuffer?
