The use cases I have in mind don't fit there. If you for example want
an interface to be able to attach multi line text notes to articles in
Gnus, it makes no sense to use a Customize or EWW buffer for that.
`org-capture' is another (already implemented) example: It prompts you
for a new note or task using a pop-up buffer. This time, this buffer is
in org mode.
Magit's buffer prompting for a commit message is yet another example.
In all these cases, you don't yet have a buffer that you could use for
input, unlike Customize or EWW, and the minibuffer is not good for the
task.
Michael.
