I agree that not every tab-complete change requires tests, and we don't
need to mirror all cases from tab-complete.in.c. I also think tests that
provide little benefit compared to their maintenance cost can be omitted.
However, since this patch implements a previously unimplemented feature
(removing a XXX TODO comment), I believe the primary test cases should be
kept to verify the core functionality and prevent regressions.
That said, I can reduce the test cases. The current 4 tests could be
reduced to 2:

One for USING <TAB> (core functionality: table completion)
One for USING <table> <TAB> (keyword completion after table)

WDYT?
