Thanks for your reply!

Yes, I think I am "not even wrong"...

What I actually want is to let "company-dabbrev-code" behave the same
like the completion in emacs-lisp-mode (which in turns is
"elisp-completion-at-point" via "company-capf").

So my actual question is indeed: how to let company-dabbrev-code works
like "partial-completion"?
