Responding to some of what you say there, comparing
with Icicles, as food for thought.
With Icicles there are pair of keys for cycling
forward and backward: `down' and `up' arrows.
But you can also just continue to use `TAB' (which
completes, as usual), to cycle forward. This is
handy. When you want to cycle backward, use `up'.
[And no, `S-TAB' does not cycle backward. In Icicles,
`S-TAB' and `TAB' act similarly, but provide different
kinds of completion.]
___
You say that such highlighting is limited to when
all candidates are visible in *Completions*. That's
not the case in Icicles. The current candidate, which
is the one that's highlighted, is always visible (if
*Completions* is shown).
___
In Icicles you need not show *Completions* to cycle
candidates. Cycling still places candidates, one by
one, in the minibuffer. (You can complete without
showing *Completions* by using `C-M-TAB' instead of
`TAB'.)
