Minibuffer positioned at a location other than the bottom of the frame?

Dear Emacs developers and users,

Has any consideration been given to having the option of displaying the
minibuffer window somewhere other than the bottom of the frame?  For
example, if I have a frame split horizontally with bufferA on top and
bufferB at the bottom, and I do an isearch in bufferA, it might (arguably)
be nice to have the minibuffer window appear below bufferA's mode line, as
opposed to below bufferB's mode line.

I have found this thread:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2015-03/msg00114.html, and I
am aware of the possibility of moving a separate minibuffer frame to
achieve something similar, but I am specifically curious about loosening
the "if a frame has a minibuffer window, the minibuffer window is displayed
at the bottom of the frame" assumption.

Please Cc me on the replies.

Thank you in advance!

Zhenya
