Sorry, but I totally missed the point of the example. :-)
Isn't completion of "L" to "Lionel" at the beginning of a line exactly
what your completion function should enable? With the bzr version of
yesterday, I get these results:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
L<TAB>
Lionel
L<TAB>
;; message: no match
Lionel<TAB>
;; message: sole completion
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Bye,
Tassilo
