> “Else” doesn’t always use a colon. Consider “1 if x else 2”.
Good catch Martin. Unfortunately the completer doesn't take context into account. "else" with a colon is a common case, but unwanted colon could be annoyed. I agree that it would be safe to not append a colon after "else". At least unless we make the completer context aware. However I don't think that unwanted space would be so annoyed. Here is updated patch.
I see that your code does an autocompletion for module names in "import", Martin. This was my next idea. Do you want to provide a patch for including this in CPython?

Because there is "format(".

This is definitely a new feature. And there is a risk to break something (if standard completer is used programmatic).
