Ok, so you want to merge the lists for auto-completion. I think when we
do this, we do need to pre-generate and cache the list of words of the
current file as generating the list would probably too heavy for every
keystroke, even if only enabled by a pref.

I will commit the code as I said: bound to a keybinding only, for now.
I don't mind if this gets improved later.
