If one uses -M, one cannot tell which field one is one when inputting
boxes like

Real name * [                         ]
   E-mail * [root@localhost           ]
  Nickname: [                         ]
            [ ] Raw signatures (without automatic link)
  Language: [en - English               ]

Even worse, when the cursor is on top of any character, e.g., in a
radio box, one cannot see what character that is.

Seen in xterm.
