That's what ":exclusive t" does.  Of course "no match" is tricky to
define: if you use a fancy completion style that tries really hard to
find a match (ido-flex style, maybe even with "typo-correction"), then
only trying the second table when "there's no match" for the first one
might end up meaning that it never tries the second one.
