Snippets ruin autocomplete selection.

[jordwalke]

Open a new .js file:

Type the following text:

completeMe

They open up the "for" snippet (by typing "for" <TAB> and selecting the first menu option).

Begin typing completeMe.

You'll see the snippet window open and close repeatedly and never highlight completeMe as an option.

Whereas if you try the if snippet by typing "if" followed by <TAB>, you'll see the correct behavior. I believe it has to do with the fact that the for snippet "mirrors" the placeholder in multiple places in the snippet output.

Interesting. Yeah, that wouldn't be surprising. I have an experimental branch somewhere implementing multiple cursors and switching snippet placeholders to use them (way way not ready hehe), I idly wonder if that will help…
