Possible to accidentally replace entered text with undefined from Drupal's autocomplete

drupal autocomplete undefined

Anyone else notice that on free tagging vocabularies, when no result comes up but you press the down arrow anyway, your text can be replaced wih 'undefined'?

Update: I think this piece in misc/autocomplete.js is working fine:

 
  // If no value in the textfield, do not show the popup.
  if (!this.input.value.length) {
    return false;
  }

The creation of the pop-up is probably earlier than it has to be, maybe it can be called earlier.
