+This extra for mini.snippets activates the following:
+1. During completion with either cmp or blink, expand lsp snippets
+2. To use other snippets: Press <c-j> in insert mode
+
+Note that there is no completion source. 
+Other snippets(custom or from friendly-snippets) are handled by pressing <c-j> in insert mode.
+
+In default LazyVim, neither cmp nor blink define the default mappings used by mini.snippets
+For now, pressing tab and shift-tab inside a snippet just inserts a tab
+
+-- TODO: Find a way to incorporate user defined mappings including super-tab
+-- TODO: Find a way to more easily support lang_patterns for snippets.gen_loader.from_lang
