Also, with emacs customized the way that works for me, the following
happens to "M-x hl TAB"
M-x hl TAB
[listing changes unexpectedly]
M-x h-l
flush-lines
LaTeX-math-lg
LaTeX-math-ll
...
What triggered me to file this bug is this chicken and egg problem.
I want to activate "highlight line" mode but my short term memory at
the finger tips has forgotten "hl" at the "M-x hl C-j". So I go
typing "M-x highlight" but the generated listing doesn't fetch the
unavailable "hl-line-mode" which I very much prefer to see as
"highlight-line-mode".
