In that case the right behavior depends on many things (e.g. depends on
where the minibuffer frame is located w.r.t to selected frame).  To get
this right most of time will require a lot of heuristic code, so we may
as well punt on it and decide that any behavior that's OK for
non-minibuffer-only situations is OK for minibuffer-only situations
as well.
