It goes by too fast for me to see what's really happening, but try this.
Start a menu selection with a large number of completions, enough to fill
most of the screen or even to require scrolling.
Now hit ESC-x to invoke execute-named-command.
Now abort that with C-g (send-break).
You get a bunch of flickering and then you're thrown back to the PS1 prompt
with the current command aborted. Ick! I just wanted to get out of the
execute: prompt, not blow away the whole command line.
You get similar flickering if you abort out of a scrolling menu-selection
with C-u (kill-whole-line). I don't see the flicker when not scrolling.
