I meant doing something like

(custom-set-variables
 '(ediff-window-setup-function (quote ediff-setup-windows-plain)))

in your .emacs.

The reason is that I'm convinced that the problem you and others see
here is related to focus redirection for minibuffer-less frames.  In

https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=24500

I provided a scenario where C-g won't get you back to a reasonable state
either (look for a function called ‘my-other-window’).
