Subject: 28.0.50; Possibly outdated documentation about the minibuffer and
 echo area

This sentence is in the Info node (emacs) Basic Minibuffer:

"If an error message or an informative message is emitted while the
minibuffer is active, the message hides the minibuffer for a few
seconds, or until you type something; then the minibuffer comes back."

Wasn't this the behavior before Emacs 27.1? If I'm not mistaken, since
27.1, and by default, informational messages don't hide the minibuffer
anymore.

Thanks.

Right, I fixed that text now, thanks.
