Of course, we can add options to allow fine tuning of every behavior.
While I like the tuneability of Emacs I am not sure if it is advised to
make every tiny bit configurable. The way I wrote the current patch
allows the addition of custom `completions--insert-*` functions.
Furthermore there is always the advice mechanism, the possibility to
override functions etc, so I don't feel the need to add configurations
for every detail.
In my patch, I made this choice since it seemed more natural given the
distinction of horizontal and vertical insertion. By using a more
horizontal-like grouping, the distinction between the styles would be
less pronounced. However the arrangement you proposed is also
reasonable. I don't feel strongly about this and I am not against
offering this as configurable option or even as sole option.
In the patches are there more concrete issues which need to be addressed?
Daniel
