This works as intended. It's a compromise between shortening the
message, to avoid the press-enter prompt, and being able to see the
whole message. The idea is that after jumping to a line with ":cnext"
you can do ":cc" to see the whole message. It's implemented in a way
that when displaying the same line twice the second time it displays the
whole line.
