It depends on what you have in mind with "constraint resizing".
- We can constraint the frame size via size hints so a user can never
make the frame smaller than needed to make all its windows visible.
Whether this works with other window managers depends to be seen, is
not general practice with practically all other applications I know of
and, as mentioned before, doesn't really work on Windows. And we
would have to make it optional to avoid offending any users.
- Otherwise we'd have to constraint the size of normal windows since
'window-safe-min-height' gives them always at least one frame line and
if a frame contains two windows above each other and shrinks to two
lines, these lines will be filled up already. So the display engine
and/or the windows code would have to "skip" these windows to allow
showing the minibuffer window instead. For me skipping a window is
tantamount to giving it "zero height".
But maybe I'm missing something.
