This commit may be going in the right direction, but do you know why
even pressing TAB at the end of the offered scenario doesn't make
Emacs ask for password?
It's a Tramp feature. When it is in `tramp-completion-mode'
(`non-essential' is an indicator for it),
Like discussed in
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=23006#56, this doesn't
make sense to me.
When the user presses C-M-i when typing a remote file name, they most
likely want to be prompted password if the connection is not yet
established. That is as opposed to "idle completion", as explained and
discussed in https://github.com/company-mode/company-mode/issues/462
Based on that discussion, I though you'd improved that already somehow.
Tramp never opens a new
connection on its own. So it doesn't come to the point the remote end
asks for the password.
I'm not sure what "on its own" means here. In some file name completion
contexts, Emacs does ask for a password, and in some (like here, where
it's arguably a bug), doesn't.
The patch below makes Ido ask for password if I type TAB twice. But
not after I do that once, which is puzzling. But maybe the function
uses the completions already completed for the minibuffer, as a kind
of optimization.
Well, but it still doesn't comlete "/sudo:" and alike.
It does offer some completions there, but doesn't ask for password until
I type the slash after the colon. Which differs from the default
behavior, indeed.
I made a test with the emacs-25 branch; ido completion behaves
differently, when I use the Tramp libraries from the master branch
there. So looks like I must dig into Tramp for understanding the
differences.
Will do, but it might take time. I'm offline next days.
Thank you.
