Completion sucks anyway. Setup aliases and type the
aliases instead: style, precision, speed.
Like this:
;; For example, for mail addresses, .mailrc can look
;; like this:
;;
;; alias john "John DiFool <difool@incal.com>"
;; alias kate "Katherine Moss <mossy@km.com>"
;; alias friends john kate
;;
;; For Usenet groups, setup ordinary abbrevs:
;;
;; (let*((write '( ... )) ; other abbrevs
;; (groups '(("geh" "gnu.emacs.help")
;; ("geg" "gnu.emacs.gnus")
;; ; ...
;; ("ges" "gnu.emacs.sources")))
;; (both (append write groups)))
;; (define-abbrev-table 'global-abbrev-table both) )

This rant is a waste of energy - just set the keys to
whatever you want.

Really? Can you quote that?
