Suppose we add a variable `completion-ignored-names-regexp' that a
name would not be provided as a first completion if it matches one of
the names in this variable and there are other names that does not
matches any names in this variable.

Then we can say that, the cases that `completion-ignored-extensions'
and `completion-ignored-names' can handle are only special cases, or
``subsets'' that `completion-ignored-names-regexp' can handle.

How about adding the variable `completion-ignored-names-regexp', and
making `completion-ignored-extensions' a deprecated variable and the
same as `completion-ignored-names-regexp'?

Guanpeng Xu
