This is on upstream's TODO list.  One way that the current handling
could be improved is to check whether there's more room to display the
completion on the opposite side of the cursor.  If so, display it there
instead.  I'm not sure that wrapping the completion lines would work too
well.  I'll work on a patch for displaying the list on the oppposite
side of the cursor for now.
