I thought it would make sense to have that function behave as regularly
as possible...
However, looking at the use cases for minibuffer-message, all of the
in-tree calls are trivial: "Confirm". "Incomplete". "Hit space to
flush". All of those things are UI details that would be surprising to
have land in the *Messages* buffer.
So I agree with Eli, and I don't think this is something that
minibuffer-message should do at all. If something wants to do a
minibuffer-message and log it, then that thing should just do both.
So I'm closing this bug report.
