Thanks, I tested everything, and it works nicely.

One small detail that could be added later is to extend
the customization type of `completion-category-overrides'
:value-type with `eager-display'.  Since currently
only programmatic use is supported.

Also tried to do:

  (add-to-list 'completion-category-overrides
               '(tmm (eager-display . nil)))

but after typing TAB it pops up the completion buffer
where all functionality is lost.  Is this because
`tmm-add-prompt' is called only for non-nil `eager-display'?
