Subject: 23.0.94; feature request: be able to log minibuffer messages
Date: Wed, 3 Jun 2009 14:38:41 -0700

Feature request: Be able to log minibuffer messages, that is, messages
from `minibuffer-message'.
 
For example, option `message-log-max', which allows for disabling
logging, could have additional values:
 
* negative N means (abs N) max lines + log minibuf msgs too
* other non-nil value, besides t and N, means log minibuf msgs too
 
With minibuffer messages logged also, a user can consult *Messages*
(e.g. using `C-x C-b') if s?he misses an ephemeral message.
