Hello, I'm noticing a problem with the `org-goto` command when used with
`org-goto-interface` set to `outline-path-completion`.
I use the standard "*Completions*" buffer for completion, so I would
like to leave the setting of `org-outline-path-complete-in-steps` at its
default (t).
But I've found that I'm unable to complete with `org-goto` if I select
an item in the Completions buffer. This is because as soon as I
select a heading in the Completions buffer, the text that I entered
in the minibuffer is duplicated, so the Completion doesn't match.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Start Emacs with "emacs -Q"
2. In the scratch buffer, evaluate:
(setopt org-goto-interface 'outline-path-completion)
3. Open an Org-mode file that has multiple headings with the same
starting character(s).
4. Enter "C-c C-j" to invoke `org-goto`
5. Enter some text that matches multiple headings, and press "TAB"
6. Attempt to complete from the Completions buffer with "M-<down>"
7. Notice that as soon as you highlight any of the headings listed in
the Completions buffer, the text you typed in the minibuffer
appears twice.
For example, if you type "Emacs", press TAB and attempt to select the
heading "Emacs Usage" in the Completions buffer by pressing
"M-<down>", the text after the minibuffer prompt will be
"EmacsEmacs Usage", which doesn't match any headings.
You will not be able to complete without manually deleting the
duplicated text.
With warm regards and gratitude,
Martin Marshall
