I am suspicious of making c-Q in the minibuffer just quote; my poor old
ZWEI/ZMACS philosophy states that commands that manipulate text should
be ZWEI commands, all the same irrespective of whether the ZWEI buffer
in question has anything to do with ZMACS (as a ZMACS buffer or
mini-buffer).
Having it always quota non-inserting keys would be OK.
c-Q ? is pretty random anyway, in reality the user should always be
told to seek help with the HELP key, and the HELP key should always get
the help. This sort of thing is what I mean when I say that we have to
clean up the user interface philosophy throughout the system before it
can be good for naive users.
