100% agreement: the integration of CEDET in Emacs was one step in
that direction.  The new completion-at-point-functions is also a step in
that direction.  Integration of company-mode in ELPA is also a step in
that direction.  Hopefully auto-complete will be added to ELPA as well.
And hopefully those completion mechanism will merge (i.e. auto-complete
and company-mode should rely on completion-at-point-functions to get
their completion data, which will need enhancing
completion-at-point-functions along the way).

I'd love to do that, but am swamped, so help would be most welcome.
