Good!  Nice and clean.

But what does that do?  Discarding until current_undo does
nothing, right?

Upon first testing, I got some strange behavior, but cannot
reproduce that any more.  It seems to work well -- but I don't
understand why.  :)  How is it possible that a single undo undoes
both the line wrap and the attempted completion?  I can't break it,
so it must be correct, but it feels like magic.

I've pushed a tweaked version of your patch to the branch.
Please verify that you are okay with it.
