Huh? The shell completion is used in M-!
Also I have some work-in-progress patches to replace some of the shell
and lisp-symbol completion code (and sym-comp.el) to use
minibuffer-complete. There very much is a need for this completion code
to magically decide when to use message and when to use
minibuffer-message, and until now the best test I've found is
minibufferp, not active-minibuffer-window.
