Regarding this item in etc/NEWS:
*** Operations like C-x b and C-x C-f, which use switch-to-buffer, do
not fail any more when used in a minibuffer or a dedicated window.
Instead, they fallback on using pop-to-buffer, which will use some
other window.
What does this mean? Naively, it seems to be saying that
C-x C-f C-x C-f will do something new, but it instead gives the same
error as previous versions of Emacs ("attempted to use minibuffer while
minibuffer is active"). So what's this about?
