It would be great if such an extension would allow arbitrary completions - not just symbols (variables, types, functions, etc). For instance if an extension which provided templates/snippets were available, various language constructs could also be in the list. Taking a boilerplate-ridden language such as C as an example, for- loops could be completed with the same action as completing a variable called "form". I know that Xcode (an IDE on Mac OS) does it this way, and it's quite nice to use the same completion keystroke. This could perhaps be implemented through hooks which ask registered extensions for data to populate the list.
