I had a rather more involved scenario in mind:

- Start completion, *Completions* is shown (ok).
- Switch to *Completion*, press 'q' (because sometimes you need to see 
the buffer that was in that window, for example). *Completions* is hidden.
- Can't bring it back because TAB only cycles.

But ok, '?' will bring it back, if you know that binding and didn't 
change it.

Sure.
