Yes, 20 sounds like a good default.

Re configurable, I had the same thought.  Configuring the history length
by a style would be straightforward, but I'd suggest waiting for
somebody to step up and say he'd use that knob before adding it.
(Knobs have a maintainability cost.)

I'm not sure how to go about making the second <TAB> behave differently.
Perhaps others could weigh in about that.

Cheers,

Daniel
