+1 for this - I've been pondering the exact same thing. For those that use iTerm2 on the Mac, I'm thinking similar to the cmd-; functionality, but using the entire tmux scrollback buffer. Not entirely sure how this would be implemented. I suspect that it couldn't be done in-place like vim does, but would need some sort of pop-up menu with the candidate completions. Once the menu is active, the user can select a completion (or cancel), at which point the chosen completion gets pasted in via the paste-buffer mechanism. Is this functionality already available, or in some future pipeline? If not, does this approach sound worthwhile? I'd be happy to take a look at implementing this.
