Hi Juri,

Regarding your question, if I understood it correctly, I expect <down>
to have the exactly same behavior regardless of the cursor position,
i.e., to move to next completion line, no matter if cursor is on a
prefix, a suffix or on a completion candidate.  The same is true for
<up>.  The <left> and <right> seems to be working as expected.
