What is special about the minibuffer in regard to font locking?

There is an existing bug report about font locking in the minibuffer

https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=46092

and I'm wondering how the minibuffer is special which prevents font locking 
there.

AFAIK, normal buffer functions (eobp), etc. work there and it also supports 
text properties, so what else is required from a buffer by font locking which 
is not supported in the minibuffer?
