My point is of course that I often find myself typing TAB to complete in the minibuffer even though I know I can use M-TAB. TAB is used to complete interactive commands and file names. Some part of my brain does not seem to care that it is another prompt.Is there any reason not to bind TAB to `lisp-complete-symbol' for the "Eval:" prompt in minibuffer? It is bound to indent-for-tab-command' now.TAB in the minibuffer normally is used to complete the whole contents of the minibuffer, but the "Eval:" minibuffer can contain arbitrary expressions. What you want is already available via M-TAB in the minibuffer.What's the point of indenting lisp expressions in the minibuffer?Indenting Lisp expressions in the minibuffer is useless. OTOH, binding TAB to `lisp-complete-symbol' is redundant and also not quite a natural to type inside Lisp expressions in the minibuffer.
