I've been playing with bbdb insinuation and flyspell both lately.
Interesting packages, both, but both of them try to bind `core'
functionality to [M-tab]. flyspell is part of emacs now, but bbdb is
a old and widely-used package, and the bbdb mapping is more intuitive
(bbdb-complete-name versus flyspell-auto-correct-word). I'm not sure
which way, if either, should be corrected.
For myself, I've adopted the alternate solution of adding M-; as
bbdb-complete-name in mh-letter-mode-map; this matches other bbdb
idiom, and replaces the otherwise-unuseful comment-dwim.
I'm sending this to both bbdb and emacs-pretest bug lists in case the
relevant maintainers decide that discussion is warranted. I would
personally suggest that the flyspell binding be replaced.
