I have removed all other completion modes (allmost, forgot Ctrl+E), because of 
incompatibility with the new completion code. You are right, there might be 
people using them. Well, weekend is near, I'll see what I can do...

absolutely!
messing around with GUI and config is a bit scary ... with this code example I 
wanted to show one possible solution. Another reason for not changing the GUI 
part, there are some issues I don't understand/know:
1. porting to qt4 is on the way, does it make sense to keep patching 
branch3.5? Or should the person porting the code use the idea and implement 
it in qt4?
2. If I can't come up with a solution for the other completion modes, who will 
decide on removing them from kmail?
