Subject: bug#26513: 25.2; pop-up-frames and *Completions* buffer
Date: Sat, 15 Apr 2017 11:17:06 +0200

From emacs -Q:

M-x set-variable RET pop-up-frames RET t RET
M-x global- TAB

The *Completions* buffer is opened in a new frame, but the cursor is in
the frame too, so the user has to switch back to the minibuffer to
continue typing.

How can the user ensure that the cursor goes back to the minibuffer
automatically?  Could the solution be documented somewhere (maybe in the
docstring of `pop-up-frames') or could the completion code take care of
it?
