Don't forget that completion can now use substring
and other kinds of matching.
So depending on what you mean, perhaps there's no
need to extend completion - there's just a need to
let users get the kind of completion they want in
any context.
The question, for any given _use_ of completion,
is what kind of completion someone wants. For
code-completion maybe prefix completion is great.
For `C-h f' maybe substring completion is better.
