I am writing a programmed completion table for python modules which
should work like file name completion but separated by . instead of /.

After each completion it should tell me whether the completion is a
package to help me decide whether to type . and get further completions.

So for example, twisted.inte should complete to twisted.internet with
minibuffer message [package] to mean that twisted.internet is a package.
