I don't object to moving yes-or-no-p to Elisp and/or to share code
between yes-or-no-p and y-or-n-p, but the default behavior of Emacs
should still be that yes-or-no-p uses the minibuffer and requires the
user to type something like `y e s RET' while y-or-n-p is satisfied with
a simple `y' or `SPC'.
