I think this is how I'll mostly use it as well - as an aide-memoir,
rather than to save typing.
Another option here (beyond the shortcut to show completions option)
might be to have an option to display the current list of potential
completions in the pane at the bottom rather than in a drop-down list
that means there would never be anything distracting in the context of
where you are currently typing, but the information the suggestions
provide is always present for reference when needed.
Warmest Regards,
Mark.
