The completion code doesn't differentiate between these cases, since it used to start completions after the first keypress. It all ends up going through the same function (e_select_nems_completion_start_query in addressbook/gui/component/select-names/e-select-names-completion.c) This is the code that checks the length of the string we're supposed to use, and returns immediately if the length is < 3. There's probably a way to work out a scheme like you mention, but it'll require changes in a couple of different places (both addressbook and gal) and probably won't happen before > 1.4.
