Very, yes, and yes (":cn").

I don't think Steven understood what you were talking about. See my

It would work with once instance of vim working of multiple buffers.
I don't think you can complete from any arbitrary running vim process

file for completion, such as /usr/dict/*, or another specific file you
are working on. See ':help complete' in Vim.
