hi,

here is a suggestion related to the fact that completions in fish are so
informative that sometimes the completion is all i want.

this bites me when the item i want to lookup has only one completion,
because then the completion is just filled in and the informative pager
output is never shown.

so therefore i would like to request to always show the pager with the
info about the completed item, even if it is only a single item to show.

related to that, it would also be helpful to see all completions that
include wildcards with the wildcards expanded. so that it
is possible to use completions to verify that the wildcards actually
expand to the desired selection.

currently, i often find myself in the middle of a longer command that
involved wildcards, being forced to abort and first verify with ls that the
wildcards are actually what i want.

being able to do have wildcards expanded in the completion pager, 
would make me quite a bit more productive.

greetings, martin.
