Either way, `C-M-i` seems like a natural choice since inserting the
previewed completion is strongly related to `completion-at-point`, so
the idea is that this key combination does something similar
(completion) whether the preview is visible or not.  WDYT?
It removes certain power from the user, namely, being able to press
C-M-i to see all available completions, not just the previewed one.

I think I'd simply use RET as the key. Since the preview only appears
after the user had pressed C-M-i already, this should conflict with the
regular usage of RET.
Other applications that provide this feature use TAB, not RET.

Works for me.
