In GNU Emacs 19.26.2 (sparc-sun-sunos4.1.3) of Mon Sep 12 1994 on numsun1

Well, I have often a lot of frames on my screen, some of them hidden below
others.
If i type a command like "C-x C-f filename" the filename is then often
displayed and could be edited in the minibuffer of some hidden frame.

I suggest that always the minibuffer of the current frame shall be used,
so that the command can be seen and edited.

Volker.
