I dist-upgraded. There were many questions and or notices shown to me
via the curses interface. I have a feeling that if my finger is slow
leaving the RET key, I might accidentally answer two of them at
once... maybe add a 1/2 sec. delay or something. These are even
questions not from the same package's configuration, but from separate
packages's configuration.

APT flushes the input buffer before starting the DPKG steps to prevent
problems like this.
The curses interface is part of debconf not APT.
Please don't file bugs on speculative problems that you have never seen.
