I assume that your point is not to assume that users have a minibuffer that can
grow.

But just in case you are also interested in growing a standalone minibuffer, see
`1on1-fit-minibuffer' here:
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs-en/download/oneonone.el

I add it to `post-command-hook':
(if (and 1on1-fit-minibuffer-frame-flag (require 'fit-frame nil t))
    (add-hook 'post-command-hook '1on1-fit-minibuffer-frame)
  (remove-hook 'post-command-hook '1on1-fit-minibuffer-frame))
