Is it possible to use weight or priority i.e. the context decided
doesn't cut completion space to a subset but instead prioritise those
fit into the context by putting them at the front. Or find a way to
allow other completions to show up when the input matches none of the
subset.
Also could we not force users to insert ` before any completion in
strings or comments.
BTW, this is what happens when false negative hits:
1. If I remember the completion and it is short I type it output but
often I double check with C-h f or C-h v to make sure it is correct.
2. When it is long or I don't remember I have to use C-h f or C-h v and
copy it over from the *Help* buffer.
The cost is high and painful.
Thanks,
Leo
