when it reaches the end of the line ? surely the code complete box
should disappear when the cursor skips past the last typed letter

e.g. aVar.semiComple[]

[] represents the cursor

when you enter a right arrow the cursor should travel to where-ever it
needs to go ( newline or next position, this depends on the content of
the line ) and the codecompletion should cease and the box dismissed

like I said a good first step would be local ( or module ) scope
variables that are declared, not sure why this is causing problems (
those variables should be available from the parsed info )

I'll have a look at the new routines as soon as possible.

We really need to clean this up as soon as possible, I really want this
committed to master quick so that we can progress to the next steps (
and I think some discussion on the list would be helpful about that )
However to aid that discussion I think having the experimenal feature in
place to help show what is possible would be really useful
