Using the above instructions, I get:

(0 . 0)

Then I do
M-x windmove-default-keybindings
C-x C-f
S-up

So currently the minibuffer is active, but I am in *scratch*.
The above sexp still returns (0 . 0).
S-down still does not go back to the minibuffer.
Hm.

The result are just the same when I have an active minibuffer.
