   I don't like the idea of adding "" at the beginning of a completion table.
   Here I have a good reason, which is that it changes the behavior:

      (try-completion "" '("aaa" "aab" "aac"))  => "aa"
      (try-completion "" '("" "aaa" "aab" "aac"))  => ""

ELISP> (try-completion "" '([] "aaa" "aab" "aac"))
"aa"

So, [] should be consed to the front of the list.

Sincerely,

Luc.
