While I don't know how to fix this issue, I have to note that
this Info node should also mention that minibuffer-electric-default-mode
is now obsoleted by the new user option minibuffer-default-prompt-format.
The only problem is that currently not all prompts use 'format-prompt'.
Maybe this should be added to etc/TODO?
