I'm undecided if this would be a nice feature, a single line more space for
browsing. For now it's irritating me, but I think I'll become accustomed with
this behaviour soon.

I think it would be more intuitive if the input widget will be removed until
nothing is show in input. If I use hinting and break it with <ESC> the input
is erased but still visible, until <ESC> is pressed a second time.

If I enable autohide an :set some value and than activate hinting, the imput
widget disappears when the hint appear. Without these bugs, this could be a
nice feature.
