We don't have to care about cmdList since it does not use
virshDomainNameCompleter. What this patch addresses is use of
VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_* for this specific completer callback. And our
commands accept domains only from a small subset of those. It's safe to
say that 99% of commands take active/inactive domains, and the rest 1%
is more specific. Anyway, lets try to print out all used flags for this
completer:

libvirt.git $ git grep VIRSH_COMMON_OPT_DOMAIN tools/ | cut -d'(' -f 2 |
cut -d')' -f 1 | sort -u

VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_ACTIVE
VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_INACTIVE
VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_OTHER
VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_PAUSED
VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_PERSISTENT
VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_RUNNING

I guess you just misunderstood this patch.
