+We recently switched to popping up a buffer to report CLI errors, but\r
+this was too intrusive, especially for transient errors and especially\r
+since we made fewer things ignore errors. This patch changes this to\r
+display a basic error message in the minibuffer (using Emacs' usual\r
+error handling path) and, if there are additional details, to log\r
+these to a separate error buffer and reference the error buffer from\r
+the minibuffer message. This is more in line with how Emacs typically\r
+handles errors, but makes the details available to the user without\r
+flooding them with the details.\r
+\r
+Given this split, we pare down the basic message and make it more\r
+user-friendly, and also make the verbose message even more detailed\r
+(and more debugging-oriented).\r
+---\r
+\r
+This version fixes two hard-coded paths in the tests.\r
