Now done in master.
But I think it illustrates a common completion pitfall we have:
1. M-x project-find-file (while inside Emacs sources)
2. Type 'GNU', then TAB, then TAB again.
3. It completes to 'GNUmakefile' and insists it is 'Sole completion'.
Even though e.g. etc/GNUS-USERS exists.

I've decided against writing a wrapper that pipes the whole collection
through 'substring' every time it is called. So for now it also requires
a flat collection.
