"it" == "making C-x o's completion pay attention to shorthands".
In this thread, we've described many ways how that can be done.
C-x o already "pays attention" to them, from day one, but that attention
is somehow deemed insufficient. So you'll have to be clearer about
what you're suggesting exactly, i.e., "what happens when".
