Use a modified version of nvim-cmp's word extraction algorithm from expanded snippets for use in auto-insert preview textEdits. For example, if a snippet expansion results in something like: ``` my_neat_function(int arg1, double arg2) ``` Then the floating window will show the above for that completion, but when selecting it, the buffer will only insert `my_neat_function`. This allows using the snippet completion item without actually _accepting_ it by just selecting it in the preview window and then continuing to type. So one could type "my_n", Ctrl-N/Tab (or whatever your keymap is) to select `my_neat_function`, and then just continue with typing the ( and args manually. Of course, accepting the completion will still work as expected by expanding the snippet.
