The documentation on content assist is missing details on how to write more complex proposal engines. It should have this detail:

 The event.proposal may be either a simple string or an object with this shape:
 {   proposal: "[proposal string]", // Actual text of the proposal
     description: "description", // Optional description to display
     positions: [{
         offset: 10, // Offset of start position of parameter i
         length: 3  // Length of parameter string for parameter i
     }], // One object for each parameter; can be null
     escapePosition: 19 // Offset that caret will be placed at after exiting Linked Mode; can be null
 }
 Offsets are relative to the text buffer.
