I am actually looking into vertical, split window or full screen
incremental completion similar to helm, but that it should be
lightweight.

Maybe I could use tabulated-list-mode in such manner that searching
for patterns and multiple words provide me with list of choices among
many.

It is because I have business applications that use Helm, and it is
external library, I would like to modify some applications and make
them available to GNU ELPA.

The email address of author for icomplete: kml AT nist.gov is not
working any more.
