So I think it would be pretty neat to have some form of intellisense
dropdown as a core widget in YI. It could be off by default, but it
should be trivial for plugin to use. For instance, haskell mode could
use it for namespace and import completion.

In my experience, intellisense is the main feature that holds people
back from using emacs and instead stick religiously to visual studio
or eclipse. While I'm not convinced this is the end-all feature, for a
lot of really good programmers it is necessary in an editor.

There is a plugin for emacs, but I've found it pretty poor -

Looks like is also exist for vim, but I haven't used it-

Thanks,
