Code hints are committed when pressing the Tab key, making it frustratingly difficult to align "=" or ":" in code.

For example, open brackets.js and scroll down to the brackets.test initializer (around line 145). Try adding a "Foo" field to the object. After typing "Foo", press Tab to move to the location to enter ":". Instead of simply moving over, the "Foo" gets changed to "FileViewController" and then the cursor is moved. Yes, you can undo. Yes, you can press escape to close the hints. Both of these get really annoying.

This can be a preference once we have a preferences UI. In the meantime, I think it's best to just turn it off.

👍 This would obsolete #4660, which would make me happy :-D

This looks like fixed and ready to be closed since it was fixed by the filler?
