Hello,
I'd like to know what modes are active in the minibuffer (to override
their keymaps).
`C-h m' runs `describe-mode', but I can't find a way to call it on the
minibuffer.
Thanks.

What about:
(with-current-buffer " *Minibuf-1*" (describe-mode))
?

Check your variables:
print-length
eval-expression-print-length

Does
(message "%s" (buffer-list))
show a complete list?
What do you get from evaluating
(message "%s" (get-buffer " *Minibuf-0*"))
If that doesn't display nil, you have that mini buffer.
According to the docs the only thing that can be different in a mini
buffer name from " *Minibuf-0*" (name has a leading space) is the
number.
( " *Minibuf-0*" ... " *Minibuf-n*" )

Yes, it does.

According to the above snippet, I have both " *Minibuf-0*" and "
*Minibuf-1*". Still, I can't find traces of Ido mode in neither of
them (I don't know whether I should).
Thanks for answering.
