I think the complaint is that this:
M-: (read-string "Foo: ")
<up>
and this:
M-: (read-string "This is a very long prompt indeed and it goes on and on and never seems to stop oh yes now it did: ")
<up>
work very differently. In the first case, the <up> works the same as
`M-p', In the latter case, <up> puts point into the prompt.
It does seem inconsistent.
