Believe me, I am not pretending that I actually follow this or have anything
germane to add.  But in the case in question, I can say what I was doing at the
time:

During completion with a standalone minibuffer, I clicked mouse-2 on a
completion candidate in standalone frame *Completions* (which has its input
redirected to the standalone minibuffer).  *Completions* was no doubt _not_ the
selected window.  Probably the minibuffer window was selected at the time.

No idea whether that helps.  If not, ignore.
