Description

Description of the problem or steps to reproduce

i want to turn on relative ruler while executing the jump command. the way i would go about this is as follows:
"Ctrl-e": "command:set relativeruler on,command-edit: jump ,command:set relativeruler off"

calling command-edit instantly sends a success state, while expected behavior would be that cancelling the prompt [escape] sends a failure state and completing the prompt [enter] sends a success state

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Ctrl-e binding on Void Linux with urxvt and observe the command-edit result when the prompt is cancelled with Escape or completed with Enter. Trace how the command sequence handles command-edit's success state; done means cancellation reports failure while completion reports success, so the surrounding commands respond accordingly.
