AC does call the candidate function for every character typed. We can improve interactive speed by doing an asynchronous call and only wait at most a very small amount of time for a response. If we cache the response appropriately, typing further characters would give more results.

It might even be possible to call auto-complete again on a callback if point hasn't moved...

The idle timer calls ac-update-greedy, but that doesn't seem to work. One can use (ac-start :force-init t) to force a completion I guess?
