Thanks for checking. However I think Emacs behaviour here is a bug. I
believe most (at least most new) users will expect the command to be
canceled. (Compare for example the guidelines Mathias mentioned.)
It looks safe to me to fix this before the release. I mean I find it
hard to believe that it could interfere with something (except some
users expecting the old behaviour of course).
