That's a possibility. I don't like speed sensitivity that much, but
oh, well. I think I could get used to it.

I wanted the number of TAB to be predictable to effect a certain
result. So the user can type a prefix, then hit TAB three times, to
obtain the first possible completion. When skipping the beep, some
prefixes would require two, others three, TABs.
