while most of the time I do like the feature the VAX displays all types or members where my typed text is in and not only those types or members which start with my typed text, this is sometimes a bit messy if I do want to get the type or member which starts with the text I typed.
If, e.g. I want to auto complete System after typing "Sy" I am always at AsyncCallback and have to scroll down a few times to select "System".
It could be a nice option to: a) order the listbox content different, so that all types/members which start with what I type are at the beginning of the listbox and only after those the remaining ones are added alphabetically b) leave alphabetic order but select the first type/member in the listbox which starts with the typed text
Both options give the more common case (at least in my opinion) priority where I know what I type and thus start with the correct letters. So that I have to use less key strokes before I can autocomplete with <tab>
Auto completion for all types a bit messy
