> In fact, since almost all completions in psql are of this nature, I made
> this the default mode for COMPLETE_WITH_CONST and COMPLETE_WITH_LIST and
> added a new macro COMPLETE_WITH_LIST_CS that uses the old case-sensitive
> behavior. The latter is used mainly for completing backslash commands.

> After playing with this a little, I find the behavior more pleasing.
> Less yelling. ;-)
