I believe that you're correct.

I'm not sure if K_NOSPIN has any effect on console.getstr (maybe just
console.getkey.)

You might try this instead, which should give you the result you're looking
for:
console.getstr("value", 25, K_EDIT|K_AUTODEL);
You might want to throw K_LINE onto the mode argument as well.
