I often use the standard UI and I generally don't like this eagerness to
display *Completions*, so I'd either change the code not to auto-display
the buffer (what I have done locally) or at least offer a variable
for that.

So it seems like the war should have 3 settings: always show, never
show, and "guess" (tho maybe we can skip the "guess" option and let the
other completion UIs set the var to nil).
