JFTR: This only happens if aptitude::UI::Minibuf-Prompts is set to
false (which is the default). If set to true, the cursor is always at
the end of the shown text.

I never was annoyed by that because I always use
aptitude::UI::Minibuf-Prompts=true, but I would be annoyed if the
mini-buffer would behave like the search box does.
I think, we should make both cases behave the same way. And from my
point of view, the "right" way is that the cursor should be at the end
of the text, too.
