It's easy to realise. I keep a notebook buffer in Org open where most of
the completion-at-point suggestions in my sessions come from. You could
say this is a kind of dictionary for the vocabulary I keep using.

Please also think of language environments. Most languages are much more
complex than English and need special attention for completion (case,
punctuation, etc.).

BTW, at the beginning of this month we had another discussion of
completion-at-point under the subject "Inline completion preview".
