No, remote files are not kicked out by this. non-essential just prevents
to open a *new* connection during the completion phase, when there
doesn't exist one already. If the connection exists already,
non-essential isn't relevant.
However, I believe it isn't needed here. Updating *Completions* will
happen only if a completion package is active. And they bind
non-essential already.
Best regards, Michael.
