Oh, yes, it seems so.  For example, there is the possible expansion (not
completion) function:

,----[ C-h f try-expand-all-abbrevs RET ]
| try-expand-all-abbrevs is a compiled Lisp function in `hippie-exp.el'.
|=20
| (try-expand-all-abbrevs OLD)
|=20
| Try to expand word before point according to all abbrev tables.
| The argument OLD has to be nil the first call of this function, and t
| for subsequent calls (for further possible expansions of the same
| string).  It returns t if a new expansion is found, nil otherwise.
`----

The OLD arg in hippie-expansion functions also handles the case of
cycling thru possible expansions, where an expansion erases the text
that was expanded.

So Julien, maybe you want a `try-expand-org-contact' function, and add
that to `hippie-expand-try-functions-list', and bind `hippie-expand' to
some key.

Bye,
Tassilo
