I guess my problem with it is, with the apparent end goal of 
flexibility, it ends up targeting only the default completion UI, and 
the more an alternative UI is different from it, the worse the result 
can look.

And without semantic information, it fails to take advantage of the 
additional features the alternative UIs might provide.
