Bug Description

This is not a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/cable/+bug/1198634 I believe, if you disagree feel free to mark it so ;)

The tab completion is in now, however I'd like the behavior to change to something a bit more intelligent:

- integrate a check whether the tab completion is being done on the first word of the sentence
-> if that is the case complete with : and space
-> in all other cases complete with just space

This way you can complete a nick inside a sentence, without getting a : in the middle of your sentence. The : only makes sense for the start of a message directed to that user.
