Hm. I thought that the introduction of `set-message-function' would
allow users to filter messages like this, but
(setq set-message-function (lambda (string)
'no))
only seems to inhibit messages from `message', not from `signal'? I'm
having some difficulty tracing the logic here... Anybody know whether
this is by design?

This problem has mostly been fixed in Emacs 28 -- messages are appended
instead of overwriting the minibuffer.
