Well, this also applies to <S-Tab>. And if you type CTRL-P enough times
you also get back to where you started. Let's add a remark below:
When repeating 'wildchar' or CTRL-N you cycle through the matches, eventually
ending up back to what was typed. If the first match is not what you wanted,
you can use <S-Tab> or CTRL-P to go straight back to what you typed.
