I have had a look at the Document::getTagCompletions and see some of how 
it works, and that it returns an array of KTextEditor::CompletionEntry.

The CompletionEntry has the following public variables:
QString type; (Holds XML or Script for Quanta)
QString text; (Holds the text to be inserted)
QString prefix; (Not used in Quanta?)
QString postfix; (Not Used in Quanta?)
QString comment; (Not currently used - however would be great for 
holding PHPDoc comments [Mentioned in previouse message] - as they are 
displayed next to the text)
QString userdata; (Currently holds a pipe ("|") in Quanta)

I was wondering where the best place to hold the tagType 
(Variable/Function) to pass back to filter the 
completionDTD->attrAutoCompleteAfter and for sorting?  I was thinking 
the userdata variable, however the pipe may be being used elsewhere?

Thanks
