I found a case where this doesn't work as I had expected.

I want to use `while-no-input' to calculate a helpful string for
`minibuffer-message' when reading certain input from the minibuffer, and
also use `sit-for' (inside the `while-no-input') to add delays
between/after minibuffer messages.  When I hit C-g when this runs, I get
a normal quit instead of what C-g is bound to in the minibuffer.  My
current fix is to catch the quit (once again) and call the command that
is bound to C-g.


Thanks,

Michael.
