If I understood you correctly, what you want is to right-click on the
ticker and turn the option "always on top" off.

I believe it works mostly correctly here:
a) a phrase is auto-completed without additional keyboard intervention if
it appears in the drop-down list of the address field.
b) a phrase is auto-completed from the address book if entered incompletely
(at least 4 letters) and you change focus to another field. This only
works when entering part of a real name or the full handle.
c) press Ctrl-Plus: auto-complete from the address book by entering any
number of letters and go to next address containing these letters at the
start when pressing continually. This will also complete email addresses
you start to type without the name put in.
Situations under which this does not work (bugs AFAICS):
b) won't complete names shorter than 5 characters or where the first name
contains less than 5 chars. It also won't complete handles with spaces
in them, no matter how much you enter.
c) won't complete from handles, even if entered completely.
