What I meant was: show the possible completions whenever an incomplete
entry is entered.  Here is an example of this in Emacs:

- Type "M-x Info RET".
- The prompt shows "M-x Info-".
- Type RET again.
- A *Completions* buffer shows a list of all choices starting with
  "Info-".
- Type "M-x Info-asdf RET".
- The prompt shows "M-x Info-asdf [No match]" and continues to prompt
  the user.

This prevents invalid input.  Can something like this be used in the
org refile prompts?

Regards,
Jason
