Thanks for the excellent explanation and providing a patch.

It seems as if the function multi-prompt could be an alternative to
completing-read-multiple while in Emacs 21.x, but again something doesn't
quite work:

(multi-prompt
 "," t "prompt: " '(("str1") ("str2")) nil t)

Evaluating and doing "s [TAB]" completes correctly, but if a comma is then
inserted to enter a second term, the string "[Sole completion]" appears in
the minibuffer.


All the best,
