vim-patch:9.0.0883: a silent mapping may cause dots on the command line (#21061)
Problem: A silent mapping may cause dots on the command line.
Solution: Don't show dots for completion if they are not going to be removed
again. (closes vim/vim#11501)

the executed command are still given though. To shut them up too, add a
":silent" in the executed command: >

+displayed.
Prompts will still be given, e.g., for inputdialog().
Using "<silent>" for an abbreviation is possible, but will cause redrawing of
the command line to fail.
