Subject: bug#39015: `isearch-complete1' should use `completion-at-point' or `completion-in-region'
Date: Tue, 7 Jan 2020 17:19:29 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7da1738e-1e8a-3c12-31bf-741ee171db5c@Alexander.Shukaev.name> (raw)

Not sure why in the first place `isearch-complete1' uses some custom 
auto-completion implementation that is different from a conventional 
solution, perhaps historical reasons.  Thus, I believe that reusing 
either `completion-at-point' or `completion-in-region' to implement that 
functionality is much better in the long run.  This would also allow 
packages, which customize completion behavior, to hook into `isearch' 
auto-completion as well.  See also [1] for example.
