Right.

The problem is that the default tag is tested in _main_complete which
doesn't add a context name, so it is tested in the simple case as
`:completion:default', but when called from, e.g. _correct_word, as
`:completion:correct-word:default'. A nicer pattern would be
`:completion(|:*):default'.
This is the one place I don't like about the context names. One
solution would be to always stuff `:completion:' in front so that
there are two colons before the completer name, but then we would have
those double colons not only before the command name (although this
may be not that big a problem).
