I tried to debug this.  Have a look at `edebug-display'.  The user input
"S" typically happens here:

  ;; not edebug-break
  ((eq edebug-execution-mode 'trace)
   (edebug-sit-for edebug-sit-for-seconds)) ; Force update and pause.

in the `edebug-sit-for'.

The following code doesn't check for pending input.

And at the end of the defun, in the unwind clause of `unwind-protect',
`unread-command-events' gets reset to the value of
`edebug-outside-unread-command-events', canceling the user input.


HTH,

Michael.
