This is what we do for completer callbacks: we let them generate all possible outputs ignoring any partial input (e.g. prefix of a domain name) and then use vshCompleterFilter() to filter out those strings which don't fit the partial input (prefix). The same algorithm is implemented in vshReadlineCommandGenerator(). There is no need to have the same code twice.
