He's thinking of something like the mini completion window that pops up
right underneath the text you're editing (the only place where I've
experienced that first hand is in mozilla where I type the URL).
It's like the offspring of a tooltip and a completion buffer.
For such functionality I think that x-show-tip is just sufficient.
