For compatibility with previous versions of Emacs, I think it shouldn't, at least not on the emacs-24 branch. resize-mini-windows is a misnomer: it actually means "mini-window size is controlled by display engine". That's why window-sizing commands in previous versions never paid heed to it, only redisplay did. And that's why, quite counter-intuitively, setting it to _nil_ allows the user to resize the mini-window. We could make the implementation more in line with the name in future versions, if we want, of course.
