Maybe it is best to start with something simple, then add dwimishness
later on.  It turns out that I, personally, like both the non-cycling
and the cycling behavior, so I just want two keys: one for cycling
and one for non-cycling.  M-TAB appears to be available.  So I'd be
happy to use it for cycling completion.

It ought to be simple, but I couldn't do it.  What did I do wrong?
