In emacs -Q:
1. M-: (set-frame-height nil 1)
2. M-x
3. TAB
Completion buffer is opened and from now each pressing of TAB will
scroll completions.
4. ivy-mode RET
5. M-x
6. TAB
No completions are visible
7. TAB
No completions so far but the 'enable-theme' command is invoked.
With TAB rebinded to 'ivy-partial', the command in step 7 is not
invoked, but still no completions are showed.
