There's a few things to consider about the current status of autocomplete:
* It lists all the commands that libraries declare, that doesn't mean I had the time to actually implement that command, so many commands might be suggested but give "Invalid Opcode" error when executed, this is expected.
* I enabled all libraries to expose all commands, but I haven't had the time to review one by one the special cases. Some libraries use internal words, which might be offered for suggestion, but cannot be decompiled by themselves. Until I scan through every library and un-list those special cases, you might see "INVALID_COMMAND" being suggested from time to time. This is expected.

I'm thinking of implementing a temporary full-width status area, perhaps with alpha-hold left cursor (similar to the way errors are displayed now), which provides 2 lines of text to display help about the suggested command. I'm not sure if two lines will be enough to show anything meaningful, though.
What do you think?
