Using ghost chars for completion? #301

Hi,

currently, I'm using https://github.com/Exafunction/windsurf.vim for my code completion. It's very minimal, as it's targeted for vim, not nvim. Now, I want to level up my game by integrating opencode and drop Windsurf.

The vim plugin of Windsurf works without any code completion plugin such as hrsh7th/nvim-cmp, instead, it uses ghost chars and it offers hotkeys to cycle through those suggestions:

I like that a lot, because I do not install any LSPs. I personally value to learn the APIs I work with and if I truly need assistance, I have AI. This decision lead to a very stable and fast NeoVim experience. Some LSPs are just to resource intensive, especially when on battery.

I saw opencode.nvim asks for a code completion plugin in order to use code completions. Does it not provide showing suggestions using ghost chars? If not, can it be considered, please?
