What does "narrowing" mean in this context? What should happen in
real time? Do you mean "filtering", i.e. that some items should
disappear from view? If so, what criteria should be used to filter
out items, and how is that derived from what the user types? I'm
still confused regarding the feature you are looking for, and how it
relates to completion.

Sorry, cannot watch such videos.

And now I'm completely confused: I thought you were talking about
tabulated-list-mode, but now you've made some gigantic leap to much
more general issues.
