I'm not sure what you mean. Doesn't youcompleteme do its initialization
when it is being loaded?

Hmm, maybe it relies on being sourced early, and has a VimEnter
autocommand to trigger initialization?

I suppose there is no easy way to know if VimEnter already fired.
Perhaps we need a flag that indicatest this, so you can do:

if v:vim_did_enter
call s:init()
else
au VimEnter * call s:init()
endif

Something like that?
