I may have misunderstood this but you can use the return status of
compset -P directly so that you possibly don't need this. e.g:
	if compset -P '*,'; then

You can also do a while loop if there's no particular ordering to
things in the list: while compset -P '*,' Otherwise, use elif for each
component.
