Huh! I tried the exact same typing as you've done above, and the third
item wraps into a fourth item. I expect it will be some interaction
with other minor modes. I've got:
Abbrev Ace-Pinyin Ace-Pinyin-Global Async-Bytecomp-Package
Auto-Composition Auto-Compression Auto-Encryption Auto-Fill
Cl-Old-Struct-Compat Company Company-Flx Diff-Auto-Refine Dired-Async
Display-Time Electric-Indent File-Name-Shadow Flyspell Font-Lock
Global-Company Global-Eldoc Global-Font-Lock Global-Git-Commit
Global-Visible-Mark Gnus-Message-Citation Helm Helm-Adaptive Line-Number
Magit-Auto-Revert Menu-Bar Mml Mouse-Wheel Orgalist Projectile
Pyim-Isearch Pyvenv Recentf Savehist Shell-Dirtrack Show-Paren Tooltip
Url-Handler Visible-Mark
It's bedtime now, but I will start again with "emacs -Q" in the morning.

Good thing there's only two of us.

Yes! I tried to send an email not two minutes ago, and had the
same experience. My guess is that a significant chunk of orgalist
users are using it in message-mode, where this could create
significant confusion, particularly since the orgalist command
doesn't warn you that it tried (and failed) to do anything.
