On Unix, the search will terminate this way.  If you are using
windows, then you might try changing:

	   case 0xE0:
	     ungetkey (c);
	     break;

to

	   case 0xE0 or case 0x0:
	     ungetkey (c);
	     break;

in isearch.sl.

The size of the macro buffer for 0.99-17 has been doubled from its
previous value.  Rather than doubling it again, I would rather change
the buffer from a fixed size to one that can grow as needed.  However,
such a change is not very high on my list of things to do.

Have you considered writing a slang function to edit such tables?
Such a function would be far more flexible than a keyboard macro.
