Comment (by guest):
If it is too difficult to implement both function and file name
completion, then I like to have an command line option which switches back
to pure file name completion like in GHC-6.4 and before.
In SWI-PROLOG they solved it somehow, that you can complete predicate
names with TAB and if no predicate with the given prefix exists then a
file name is chosen. I don't know if it is a good idea to port this to
GHCi. Texts after :load and in quotation marks are certainly no function
names and thus should cause file name completion.
