I do like this package as it extends standard Emacs, and lessen the
number of keys to pin point the completion candidate.

If more completions are visible at a time depends of average length of
candidates. My completion candidates may be very long, longer than 80
or 100 chars.

Personally I do not have need for up/down arrows. I tell you this to
learn from different viewpoints.
