Dynamic completion based on buffer contents is a standard Emacs feature
which is normally bound to M-/
Maybe ledger.el falls back onto dynamic completion when there is nothing
else to complete? Org-mode used to fall back onto hippie-expand. But
I see now that this has fallen through when we moved to pcomplete.
Maybe this can be put back in?
