When you have 500 matches you can type some more characters to reduce the number of matches. But you may make a typo and end up with zero matches. Then it's nice you can press backspace and type the right character. Otherwise you would have to start completion again (e.g., with CTRL-X CTRL-O when you were doing omni completion). -- hundred-and-one symptoms of being an internet addict: 34.
