Summary: Hippie Completion (Ctrl+K) works strangely within xml files

Description Tomasz Slota 2006-02-13 09:58:40 UTC
1) Ctrl+K in XML editor is case insensitive while it is case sensitive elsewhere
2) if a string 'abcde' is used within the file and is delimited by dots or
slashes it is not offered as a completion option. That would be useful to work
with the layer.xml kind of files

My general impression is that Ctrl+K in XML editor is not doing what one would
expect, it has probably never been assesed.

The word matching mechanism is a generic one for all document type. To change
that we would have to have a special EditorUI for xml files. Not a trivial change.
