smear_to_cmd breaks z= (spell suggestions) and similar

[lithammer]

With smear_to_cmd = true, it breaks spell suggestions (and other similar input lists vim.lsp.buf.code_action()).

Minimal init.lua:

vim.cmd([[packadd mini.nvim]])
require("mini.deps").setup()
local add, now = MiniDeps.add, MiniDeps.now

add("sphamba/smear-cursor.nvim")

now(function()
  local smear_cursor = require("smear_cursor")
  smear_cursor.setup({ smear_to_cmd = true })
end)

vim.o.spell = true

Got:

Expected:

Environment

• OS: Debian testing
• Terminal: Ghostty
• Neovim version: v0.11.0-dev-1517+ga37784ad83
• Smear-cursor version/commit: 005b50b

Curiously, I don't get a broken behavior on neovim release v0.10.3, but it is broken on the nighty v0.11.0-dev-1533+g1a8a48d7e5.
I can reproduce the broken behavior by simply calling vim.cmd.redraw() when the suggestions are open, e.g. with

:lua vim.defer_fn(vim.cmd.redraw, 2000) 

The redraw is needed to update the smear animation, so I cannot do much on smear-cursor side.
I guess you could file an issue on neovim repo?

Hmm this seems to be related. But is supposedly fixed? 🤔

Thank you for investigating @lithammer! Let's see what happens on Neovim's side
