I have no problems with <F9> as I have no desire to ever need such a

This is a very different feature, and so it seems like it should be
either added as a separate completer or merged (as opposed to replacing)
with the existing F9 completion. I can see how someone editing a single
document would often want to complete both ways.
> Typing (3.4)<F9> results in \eqref{eq:a_beautiful_equation}
[ Note: The need for \eqref can be mitigated with varioref's
\labelformat and/or hyperref's \autoref. There is absolutely no reason
that equations need to be handled differently within the main LaTeX
content than any other reference. ]

I'm a little confused (I haven't looked at the script) about how the
completer picks the \*ref you want. Some people are going to use the
\*refs provided by the cleveref package. Others (like me) are going to
use \autoref nearly everywhere but other variants (\Autoref) in some
places and \ref in some other cases (after "and", for example), and I
would never ever use \eqref. How could I configure?
I also am confused about using "theorem.4.5" some places and "(3.4)"
other places. For one, how is the average user going to know for sure
exactly which AUX name to use (thm.4.5 vs theorem.4.5)? And why the
different handling of equations?
Furthermore, I think I would much rather type...
\autoref{theorem.4.5<F9>}
and have that replaced with
\autoref{thm:a_nice_theorem}
So I think the script could do more by doing less... and that might make
it play very nice with existing F9 completion (that searches through the
TeX).
