nativeWidget() is not supported, no. the reason for this is to keep the 
bindings small (better runtime performance (particularly startup) and easier 
to learn) and to ensure we could be satisfied with the general safety of the 
bindings (untrusted code, etc.)

we'd have to add support to the javascript bindings for this to work. 
KCompletionBase (which is where KLineEdit gets this support from) has a 
handful of methods that are relevant and potentially useful in these 
situations. so, it is possible. would have to wait for 4.7 at this point 
though :(

to be clear: are you wanting the UI to show all matching items in a list 
beneath the line edit, or are you wanting it to just complete the "best" match 
in-line?
