Popup can't show candidates without selecting.

This is based on conversation with @supermomonga.
In some cases, for example, using autocomplete.el
, we want to show candidates without selecting one of them. By default, auto-complete.el
force to select the first candidate and pressing Enter key expands the candidate.
What we really want is:
Enter and Tab: expand candidate if selected, otherwise self insert.
(Optional) Tab: always expand. If nothing selected, expand first one.
AFAIU, popup.el
doesn't admit this. I think we'll easily implement the above (optional) feature to auto-complete.el
if popup.el
admits it. (We may need some additional APIs.) However the modification for it on popup.el
is not straightforward, I guess.
What do you think of it?
