Support for completion in command mode

Usage

If I type :e then mucomplete must show suggestions for commands starting with e.
This was inspired by the wildmenu in kakoune editor.In it if we type :e then all the commands are shown starting with e.

AFAIK, Vim does not support completion menus at the command line, and MUcomplete just acts as a wrapper for Vim's built-in functionality. So, I do not think that it is possible to satisfy your request. Vim does offer good command completion, however, when you set wildmenu. Isn't that enough for you?

I see that Neovim opens a completion menu when pressing Tab to complete a command. Maybe, Neovim is a better fit for your use case?

But I have to press Tab . That's the issue if I could complete without pressing Tab it would be a boon.
