_all_matches moves cursor



I recently added _all_matches to my completion config [1] and have come
across an annoying behaviour. When the '- all matches -' line is longer
than my terminal is wide, the cursor (along with the command being
completed) gets bounced down a line. Here's an attempt at showing what it
does... the # represents the cursor. This is after typing 'apt-<tab>'.

[jae_0]apt-                                                                 201
- exterapt-#                                                                201
apt-cache  apt-check   apt-extracttemplates  apt-get  apt-sortpkgs
apt-cdrom  apt-config  apt-ftparchive        apt-key              
- all matches -
apt-cache apt-cdrom apt-check apt-config apt-extracttemplates apt-ftparchive ...

As long as the '- all matches -' line is shorter then the terminal width
this doesn't happen.

Suggestions? Thanks.

[1] Here's all of my zstyle completion settings.

zstyle ':completion:*' completer _all_matches _complete _match _approximate _ignored
zstyle ':completion:*:match:*' original only
zstyle ':completion:*:approximate:*' max-errors 1 numeric
zstyle ':completion:*' list-colors ${(s.:.)LS_COLORS}
zstyle ':completion:*'              menu select
zstyle ':completion:*:*:man:*'      menu yes
zstyle ':completion:*'              group-name ''
zstyle ':completion:*:manuals'      separate-sections true
zstyle ':completion:*:manuals.*'    insert-sections   true
zstyle ':completion:*:descriptions' format "- %d -"
