http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28264353/stack-overflow-in-pythons-curses-is-it-bug-in-the-module/28264823#28264823 for details.  a curses.textpad on a wide-enough window, in insert mode, causes a crash by recursion limit exceeded (in _insert_printable_char) upon edit.  Workaround is to keep the window underlying the textpad sufficiently narrow.

Thanks for the report. This is a duplicate of issue 13051. The insert_mode parameter was committed in issue 1048820.
