The vertical listing in the minibuffer in response to "insert-char" fails to preview the match for "C-x 8 RET 8072".

observed behavior
* start by "emacs -Q"
* M-x customize RET
* search "icomplete vertical"
* toggle "on" Icomplete Vertical Mode 
* switch to "*scratch*" buffer
; --------------------------------
; minibuffer fails to preview 8072
; --------------------------------
* C-x 8 RET
* continue typing "80" ;; shows LINEAR A SIGN A580, A800, A801, A802, A803, A804, A805
* continue typing "807" ;; shows LINEAR A SIGN A807
* continue typing "8072" ;; shows "8072 [No matches]"

expected behavior
* start by "emacs -Q"
* M-x customize RET
* search "icomplete vertical"
* toggle "on" Icomplete Vertical Mode
* switch to "*scratch*" buffer
