[ELPA] Corfu (Completion Overlay Region FUnction)
Great! Do you plan to package this up? But do these posframes work correctly for you? I always observe https://github.com/tumashu/posframe/issues/74. And then the child frames are always a bit flickering. This is the reason why I went with overlays for corfu, and well ccfrfu does not sound as nice.
