[Forwarding to the list, as it got dropped from
Reply All.]

"it becomes clear..."

Maybe, maybe not.  If you have N completion matches
and their explicit display shows only N-5 of them,
you might want to know that there are 5 more.

In Icicles, by default, the number of candidates
currently shown, and the total number, are indicated
in the mode-line: e.g. "149/567 shown".

And the mode-line lighter includes "..." when not
all are shown.

(If not all candidates are shown it's because you've
chosen to limit the number to show.)
