Sounds good to me. I'm done mucking about with the setup, so please make
the changes you see fit. Looks like the default pyqgis.pap I committed is
missing the new 'qgis.core.NULL' attribute. Must of missed that somehow.
Shows up fine when making qsci-pap-master, though. Please test for its
completion tip in console before uploading another +1 MB .pap file (thanks).

Missing is the QScintilla2 API file, but I think that will just bloat the
default completions with items most users will not need. IMO, we should
keep the default .pap as slim as possible, for the same reasons, i.e. just
core PyQGIS, OSGeo and Python/PyQt modules. That is, until there is
on-the-fly object inspection support, which would auto-filter the results.

Regards,

Larry
