I know this isn't nice, but I didn't see a good solution and still don't
see one.  This is `caused' by the default value for tag-order which
makes arguments and value be preferred over options (as mentioned in the
docs for the tag-order style).

What one would want here is that the completion system magically knows
that `*' is intended to give the `normal' behaviour.  Unless in those
cases where one really wants to have all tags used at the same time. And
that's the problem...
