I don't know what you are doing exactly, but what happens for me, and
what should happen, is that after CTRL-X s you get the first match. As
mentioned before, this often is the one you want, thus it's logical that
this is inserted. After that, using the Up and Down cursor keys you can
select another entry without inserting it. If you type Esc or a space
then completion ends and the first match remains there. If you press
Enter the entry selected with the cursor keys is inserted.

I didn't have the intent to leave the buffer unmodified when you press
Esc. CTRL-E does that.
