I would want it to cover both requirements. It would be nice if
there would also be a front-end like `read-from-minibuffer'. Code can
be shared between the two.
What may also make sense: Emacs is prompting for user input using the
minibuffer. User can hit a key if he wants to give large input or may
want to use elisp mode or whatever - and a buffer appears accepting
input, replacing the minibuffer. User hits C-c C-c when done.
Michael.
