Emacs is already complicated as it is.  Straightforward calls would help.  

I like the vertical form and it is good that it was implemented.  But it makes

it hard for me to attract my group to appreciate the design and capabilities.



The important thing is that people see the motivation for a change in how users

can enable vertical icomplete.
