I think it is not a limitation on the module's name, but a limitation on 
the auto-completion routine of the IDE. It seems that auto-completion 
waits for three characters before starting to clobber your editor with 
popups windows; but it would make sense to enable anyway the 
autocompletion if you type in a dot. This is not an answer to your 
question, but may help anyway.
