Too invasive

[jdarling-centroid]

Type: Performance Issue

I'm just trying to write some basic code that I know what I want and it keeps suggesting things I don't want. I hit escape, start to type again, and it pops up another unrelated suggetion. Feels like every other keystroke has to be escape to stop it from auto-completing (should be called auto-mistake at this point). At some point it needs to realize that the user knows what they want to type and can just type it. Should be some type of keystroke that quickly turns off suggetions like double escape and switches back to simple code completion for things like variable names until you hit the sequence a second time.

Since it decided to show my code when I didn't want it to anyways, that has nothing to do with the code I was trying to work on. Yet co-pilot just kept suggesting that I write that.
