One problem is that completions are sorted alphabetically that
makes no sense for history items which are sorted chronologically.
So the first thing to do would be to add sorting keys in Completions
that will allow switching the order between alphabetical and unsorted
(history items are in chronological order, so unsorted should keep it)
that will change the value of 'completions-sort'.
Another question: should duplicate history items be retained
in the Completions window when history-delete-duplicates is nil?
