This is because of:

(defun transient-setup (&optional name layout edit &rest params)

[...]

  (when (> (minibuffer-depth) 0)
    (user-error "Cannot invoke transient %s while minibuffer is active" name))

Jonas, is there any reason for this check?  Things seem to work just
fine if I remove it.  (Or perhaps the check should be removed if
enable-recursive-minibuffers is non-nil?)
