I think leaving the dot is fine. We've already got three completion
functions with a dot in their name. After venv, http.server is probably
the next most useful or at least those are that two that I know I've
used.

Is a pity that _python_modules doesn't handle the submodules. For this
particular use case, I also wonder whether it's possible to filter for
modules that can be run in this manner.
