Re: [platform-ui-dev] Planning for 4.8

[Lars Vogel <lars.vogel@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

 Hi Angelo,

sounds like great features.

> After that  I think completion should be opened every time when user is typing (like  VSCode).

I think that is Bug
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=348857, currently
targeted for 4.8 by the JDT team. Please comment in this bug, that you
also think that is important.

All the other features would be awesome to have, but we only at them
to the targets if someone plans to work on them. If you or someone
else plans to work on them, please open bugs and assign yourself.

It was never useful in the past to plan for a feature without
commitment from someone to work on it.

Best regards, Lars

At least JDT
