Suppose I want to prefill the buffer with something, I should be allowed
to do that. The default only shows up when instructed, so not really
an automatic prefill of the minibuffer.
Not a choice of the caller of the function. It is the programmer who is
calling the function and who wants it to behave a certain. I find it a
big problem that when I mention minibuffer prefilling, the maintainers
reject such possibility. It basically means that I get the UI behind
by back trying to hamstring me on what I can do and what I cannot do.
Suppose I want minibuffer prefilling, give me the procedure that allows me
to do that, one that is not complicated in a way that dissuades me from
implementing such a thing.
