Yes.

`completion-category-overrides` is a user config.  Don't touch it.

There's no real notion of "point to", but it can use a completion-table
whose `category` says `eglot` and then use a corresponding entry in
`completion-category-defaults`, yes.

And those rare users who don't like `flex` (or who want the new
`mind-reader` completion style instead) can override it in their
`completion-category-overrides`.
