It's different for functions with optional and keyword arguments, and
when some arguments have already been typed in.  Examples:

	  (subseq "abc" <C-c C-s>
	    --inserts--> start [end])
	  (find 17 <C-c C-s>
	    --inserts--> sequence :from-end from-end :test test
	                 :test-not test-not :start start :end end :key key)
	  (find 17 '(17 18 19) :test #'= <C-c C-s>
	    --inserts--> :from-end from-end :start start :end end :key key)
	  (defclass foo () ((bar :initarg :bar)))
	  (defmethod initialize-instance :after ((object foo) &key blub))
	  (make-instance 'foo <C-c C-s>
	    --inserts--> :bar bar :blub blub initargs...)
