Would it be better to lose some height at the top, rather than only at the bottom? Currently, I think, g and q cannot be distinguished in the default font. In the long run, perhaps the best solution is to allow some extra space under the minibuffer for the sake of such situations. But that can't be done until the Emacs frame height no longer has to be an integral multiple of the line height.
