An occasion arose for completion-table-in-turn but disappointed to
discovered this deficiency.
1. Emacs -q -l t.el
2. M-x t-setup
3. type TAB till the *Completions* buffer pops up
I saw:
Possible completions are:
abc
def
ghi
The other table is ignored.
Completion in the buffer still works for the second table. But
minibuffer-completion-help provides little help in this case.

It's not a bug, it's a feature. It's not a union of two completion
tables, but more like "short-circuiting OR" where the second table is
only considered if the first doesn't match the input.
