[Response time, really, really slow]
I don't know what to do with this bug.  Adding items while you type is an
addition to the search feature.  So if you type something, it will search
for you.  If the search is not found you can keep typing your new entry.

If you acutally want to add an item you should use insert, or Ctrl-I in
my case.  Beware, this has other slightly odd behaviour.
