Interesting that control-g works here.  I (and other people I know) were
tormented by this problem and nobody discovered that solution.  Perhaps
because there are no other common cases in mutt where control-g is needed?

I think the average console user will try control-c and escape in this
situation, but it's not remotely intuitive that you need to type bell
characters to escape from some bad UI state.  Mutt should definitely either
hint the user that this option is available, or interpret control-c or escape
as the user (almost certainly) intends it.
