I have found a workaround, which is not to use python-mode's completion at all! I just tried opening up the EIN package, then loaded complete.py, and used EIN to connect the buffer to an existing IPython noteboook. Attached (because it's so lovely!) is a screenshot of what happens now when I type the dot after the a. Not only do I get a pop-up window with all the possible completions, but I also get a description of what each of them means in a separate (yellow) pop-up window. It would be great if python-mode.el could offer the same functionality.
