Actually, it is the scroll-margin that does it.
When the menu is created, point is at the last line. Since you have
scroll-margin set to 1, it scrolls up. You can't see that because you have no
indication, but on a graphical terminal you can see that the scroll bar has
moved a bit. Unfortunately there is no way to scroll the window, it is either
select something or C-g. wid-edit.el tries to set a scroll-other-window
command, but it somehow fails to work because of the default binding to
keyboard-quit. And in any case, IT only scrolls down, not up.
So, the menu created by wid-edit.el should either (or both)
1) place point somewhere else, preferrably at the end of the first line.
2) provide a way to scroll the window. tmm-menubar does this so it can be done.
Someone familiar with wid-edit.el must look at this.
