Incomplete, of course; thank you. But also inadequate, IMO - or insufficient, if you prefer - perhaps that is= less harsh than inadequate. The intention was not to be harsh but to say that, while it is good to chec= k the sources distributed with Emacs, it is not good enough. "Incomplete" tells part of the story, but it doesn't imply that there is a = problem. (Unless there is agreement on a completeness requirement - I wasn= 't assuming such agreement.) Saying it's not sufficient to just check the Emacs sources says both that d= oing so is incomplete _and_ that such an incomplete search is not enough. But you're no doubt right that there is likely more agreement that such a s= earch is incomplete than there is that it's also not enough.
