AFAIK nowadays 'message' displays echo-area messages in a way that
doesn't interfere with existing messages (it displays them in brackets
at the end of the existing text), so I think the original problem
should no longer exist.
Noah, can you verify that your original problem cannot be reproduced
if we remove the condition in eldoc-display-message-no-interference-p
that you added?
