When writing comments in R chunks in Quarto notebooks, autocomplete suggestions pop up for user-defined functions from other .R files in same project, even when this setting is disabled in Positron.

Steps to reproduce the issue:

1. Make sure "Quick Suggestions" in settings has the value "off" for the "comments" item (this is default).

2. Create mean_test_function.R file with the following content:

mean_test_function <- function(arg) {
    return(mean(arg))
}

3. In the same directory, open a Quarto document, insert a R chunk, start writing a comment that would trigger the mean_test_function() autocomplete:

Non-user-defined functions like mean() aren't suggested when writing a comment, but if you are writing code, they are suggested (including user-defined functions), which is expected:

Autocomplete does not make any suggestions when writing comments in a .R file. When replicating the same situation in Python, autocomplete does not seem to suggest anything when writing comments in Python chunks in Quarto, cells in Jupyter notebooks, or standalone .py files.

What did you expect to happen?

I expected autocomplete to follow the selected settings and not make suggestions when writing comments.

Were there any error messages in the output or Developer Tools console?
No.

In build 1334 I see no completion suggestions when writing a comment, even if I have something starting with the name I am typing:
