Minibuffer positioned at a location other than the bottom of the frame?

Dear Emacs developers and users,

Has any consideration been given to having the option of displaying the minibuffer window somewhere other than the bottom of the frame?  For example, if I have a frame split horizontally with bufferA on top and bufferB at the bottom, and I do an isearch in bufferA, it might (arguably) be nice to have the minibuffer window appear below bufferA's mode line, as opposed to below bufferB's mode line.

I have found this thread: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2015-03/msg00114.html, and I am aware of the possibility of moving a separate minibuffer frame to achieve something similar, but I am specifically curious about loosening the "if a frame has a minibuffer window, the minibuffer window is displayed at the bottom of the frame" assumption.

Please Cc me on the replies.

Thank you in advance!
