Well the point is that there are new additions and improvements to the
upstream autocomplete code every release - far more than we're ever
likely to do. We want to benefit from that effort, which is why our
code was designed to be updated regularly with the latest changes from
upstream. The downside is that on the rare occasion that someone wants
to update our version of the code with a new feature, it becomes
somewhat more painful.
