bug#22714: 25.0.91; Minibuffer quirk in C-x r SPC

[Steve Revilak <steve@srevilak.net>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 3534 bytes --]

Steps to reproduce:

  1. emacs -Q.  This starts emacs, and shows the default *scratch* buffer
  2. put point on line 2, column 0
  3. Press "C-x r SPC"
  4. The minibuffer prompts "Point to Register: "
  5. Press "1"

Expected Behavior:

After pressing "1", I'd expect the minibuffer's "Point to Register: "
prompt to disappear.


Actual Behavior:

The minibuffer continues to display "Point to Register: 1", as if it's
waiting for me to provide additional input.  At this point, I'd
typically press the UP or DOWN arrows no my keyboard, to dismiss the
minibuffer prompt.

Pressing RET while "Point to Register: 1" appears in the minibuffer
causes a RET to be inserted into the buffer that was active when "C-x r
SPC" was pressed.


Regression Notes:

I first observed this behavior in emacs 25.0.90.  I did not observe it
in earlier versions (e.g., 24.x).
