Yeah... this is just one of many things that involve some kind of
thinking about Vimpulse's "philosophy", i.e.: does it make sense to ape
Vim features into all details? My answer is "no", because it's
definitely not possible in all cases. And it's not even *desirable* in
all cases. But that's a matter of opinion, of course.

To be specific: `vimpulse-abbrev-expand-after' is implemented using
`abbrev-expand', which, unlike Vim, does not seem to wrap around the end
of buffer when no match is found. Maybe it can be fixed, I don't
know. But I don't really care either -- my answer is: just use <C-P>
(C-p).

YMMV
