How to affect the completion order of bash completion?

[Markus Vuori]

Hi,

I have a problem with bash programmable completion.

First I did this: complete  -W "p3 p2 p1" mycommand

Then I of course tested it by typing: mycommand p<tab>

Now when I push tab button it offers first "p1", then "p2" .. in "alpabetical" 
order. However it would be nice if I could make complete to honor the order 
in the word list.

Is there any way to make it first complete it with "p3" which is the first one 
in the list?

If there's none, It would be nice to have this feature in future bash 
releases. :)
