Re: Let temporary minibuffer messages replace current minibuffer contents?

Note that in your example - where an error occurs while a minibuffer is
active - we are speaking about `command-error-function'.

`minibuffer-error-initialize' sets this variable to
`minibuffer-error-function' locally in minibuffers, which still appends
to the minibuffer contents AFAICT.  To get rid of that you probably have
to replace `minibuffer-error-initialize' in `minibuffer-setup-hook' with
something that you like.
