The way macOS implements stdin (through a device) it will always timeout in poll(), so escape keys that are left in the unread buffer and that could match some of the entries will result in the wrong entry being selected. I have a series[1] that reimplements this and that seemed to work fine in my tests while making the code simpler, but that I didn't prioritize (and wanted to clean up further) since I wanted to prioritize the EDITOR fixes in the same area.
