Description matthies 2007-08-08 16:54:27 UTC 
When the code completion popup window is too narrow to display both the variable/method name (and parameter list) and 
its (return) type on one line, then the name is abbreviated rather than the type. (See Issue 11234 for an example.)
This should be the other way round. The name (and parameter list) are always more important than the (return) type.
