Very interesting question. I think programming is so suboptimal from what we could do, just by clinging onto the ASCII-based textfiles paradigm. Actually, autocompletion really slows me down sometimes too. For example, sometimes I type faster than I can watch what happens, and I press the up button to go up a line. Sometimes autocompletion decided to give me some options, and decides that the up button press is meant for that list, and refuses to let me go up. So I have to press left or right until my cursor is no longer in the token that is being autocompleted, and THEN I can finally go up/down a line. Very bothersome. Also, sometimes space works to select a autocompletion option, for other editors it has to be enter. Same thing with braces: I will type both of them eventually, but a lot of IDE's put one there immediately, which is very annoying if you don't anticipate. The whole thing makes coding inconsistent among multiple different editors; a bad case. IMO features should only be triggered by keys which do not have an essential function already.
