Martin Panter added the comment:
Maybe there are two special cases colliding here:
1. complete("A.foo", 0) returns "A.foo(". But the opening bracket is in
readline.get_completer_delims(), which means the completer has suggested not
only a “word” but also a delimiter.
2. Perhaps Lorenz has taken "A.foo(" directly and passed it back to the
completer. But as Robert said, if Readline were used, it would see the bracket
as a delimiter, and only pass an empty string as the text.
The question is how should the completer behave when it gets (invalid) input
that would not be possible from default Readline usage?
Lorenz: why are you passing "A.foo(" to the completer, when it only parses
attribute names, and not other Python syntax such as brackets?
