Hi,

Thanks for the guidance! Unfortunately I'm still not quite there yet -
inlined are the changes based on my understanding of the above. It
implements a "usercmd/-U" option similar to the existing -E for empty
line.

But at the moment all it does is to allow (via "complete -U -F foo") to
complete when nothing is typed in, which seemed to be possible already
with -E. If some characters are already typed in, it will still do the
default completion to commands in the PATH.

What have I missed?

Thank you for the help!
