If I run "C-c C-x @" to insert a citation into a file, I'm shown a list of bibliography entries and I can go up and down and hit RET on any I chose. That works well. But---the prompt says, "Key (empty input exits)." What makes empty input? I can't figure it out. I've never seen that phrase before. I can't make it exit properly---I either keep adding citations or C-g or DEL cancels it---so I can't make the function work. If anyone knows, I can try making a patch to make it clearer.
As so often happens, a few minutes after sending an email I think I found the answer: it's seems to be a problem with the completion mechanism Ivy.

I ran "emacs -Q" and I see how it works there, with RET closing things off, which makes sense.
Last year I looked at Vertico and thought about trying it out, but since everything was working fine, I didn't. Now I've found a reason, I guess. Ah, Emacs!
