   Of course, to get the newline I have to use quoted-insert, but when
   I enter it it clears the minibuffer (but it still gets inserted into
   the regexp).

No, it doesn't clear the minibuffer -- it just moves the point into
the *second line* of the minibuffer, causing the first line to scroll
off the top.  (Just like any buffer!)  If you want to see the first
line, use C-B, C-P, or M-<, just like always.
