Is it possible to have an editable text field with string completion?
Does CLIM:TEXT-FIELD provide this capability? The only other option I
can think of is an interactor pane with a single command for entering
the string, but this looks kludgey.

The problem I am trying to solve is to let the user choose in a dialog
a string among a large, fixed set with up to about a thousand
elements. A list pane may be another possibility, but it may not be
convenient for such a large number of items. And besides, list panes
are not yet supported by the CLIM implementation I am using, McCLIM.
