I realize that Daniel already expressed some reservations about this
patch, in that it does not address all the scenarios.  However, my view
is that this patch is an improvement over the current situation.  I
asked Daniel about this off list and he seemed to be ok with moving
forward.

So, this is ok.


In addition to templates, I wonder what happens in this area if you try
to complete "Foo::~F" or a qualified Java name like "java.lang.Str".
