I prefer to omit extensions too.
I could implement this, but I have doubts -- probably some (most?)
projects do want file extensions to be included in commit messages.

So, choices are:
1) Include file name with extension in autocompletion list (current
implementation)
2) Include file name without extension in autocompletion list (as proposed)
3) Include file name both with and without extension (more general,
but perhaps too much clutter in the list)
4) Make it configurable (but options are bad)

What do others think?

Also, what is your programming language? If it is something like
Delphi, where module name is included in the source, you can implement
choice (3) above by extending autolist.txt. See, e.g. attached patch
for Pascal/Delphi (not for inclusion into mainline).
