If I type part of a task summary in a comment I can autocomplete it to task XXXX, but sometimes I would like to autocomplete it to the full summary and URL. Maybe holding Ctrl when pushing enter could do that.

I am not sure that we get notified of modifiers when processing the completion request but we could explore ways to allow inserting verbose task details through auto completion.

I would think you should be notified of modifiers since the Java editor is (ctrl causes the completion to replace the rest of the current word).
