[Qt-creator] command-completion

[Ladnar, Marc]

But maybe the programmers can make it optional "automatic popup" or 
"requested popup",
then I think everyone is satisfied^^

Not everyone agrees with you. Auto-completion isn't always fast, 
obscures other things on the screen, and changes the behavior of various 
keys on the keyboard (for instance, the space bar, enter, up, and down). 

As far as I can tell, Creator doesn't have any way of disabling 
auto-complete, and even if it did I'm not sure people would want it to 
be COMPLETELY disabled -- people might still want ctrl+space to work, 
and they might even still want autocompletion the FIRST time they type 
the word but not subsequently if they dismiss the popup (for instance, 
by pressing Escape).

And that last bit is particularly telling: If I've EXPLICITLY dismissed 
the popup by pressing Escape, I don't want it coming back if I press 
backspace.
