In both the PHP and Java editors, we have amazing autocomplete and automatic parameter insertion that can be tabbed. I feel like this really should be in the Javascript editor, especially when the IDE is capable of realising that the variable is actually a function, and as of ECMA 6 being integrated, now can also analyse the defaults.
