Suggesting completions after commas/parentheses seems premature

[damienprystay]

Code intelligence is suggesting completions after I type a comma, apparently with a list of all the names in scope. This gets in the way when I'm writing comma-separated terms in a multi-line context, e.g. initializing a dictionary in Python:

d = {
'foo': 'bar',
'baz': 'bort',
}

After each comma I'm wanting to hit enter to start a new line; now I have to clear the suggestion popup, first (or I hit enter reflexively and get the first suggestion inserted). The same goes for an open parenthesis (e.g. when initializing a keyed array in PHP) - it's a tossup whether the next thing I'm going to be typing is a newline or something else.

I would say suggesting completions is reasonable after I've typed a word character, but not without any context to narrow the list of suggestions. Even if the next thing I want to input is something that's on the suggestion list, it's unlikely to be at or close enough to the top of the list that I can select it without first typing a couple characters of its name, anyway.

Looks like this needs to be PHP, though there could be use cases that trigger this in other languages. It is quite frustrating.

I'm encountering it in Python as well, yes.

Confirmed. Thanks @damienprystay

Relatedly (in that so far I only see this behaviour with post-delimiter suggestions), typing sufficiently fast can cause the completion popup to occur (and remain) after the character that triggered it has been obsoleted.

E.g. (in PHP) typing foo(); one character at a time shows the suggestion popup (other than for as many of the initial letters produced suggestions) occurs after (, and disappears after ); however, typing it at speed can result in the popup only occurring after the ;. Again, if the next character is a newline, that can result instead in selecting the first suggestion.

@damienprystay can you please log that separately? Only one issue per report :)
