That would have to be a *very* intelligent completion. Figure this:

Two filenames "    abc.txt", "   bcd.txt" (both have 3 leading spaces).
With a proportional font you can see that there are *some* leading spaces
but not how many. So you would have to guess, and completion won't help you
either. Or am I missing some magic feature of completion?
