I don't know why MINI-WINDOW would be better than MINIBUF.
Is this distinction significant here?

Anyway, what I did is made all window functions consistent
in regard to their MINIBUF arg.  So now they are all have
the same arg name MINIBUF:

(defun walk-window-tree (fun &optional frame any MINIBUF)
(defun window-with-parameter (parameter &optional value frame any MINIBUF)
(defun walk-windows (fun &optional MINIBUF all-frames)
(defun window-in-direction (direction &optional window ignore sign wrap MINIBUF)
(defun get-window-with-predicate (predicate &optional MINIBUF all-frames 
default)
(defun get-buffer-window-list (&optional buffer-or-name MINIBUF all-frames)
(defun count-windows (&optional MINIBUF all-frames)

Sorry, will update the manual soon.
