[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Autocompletion is misleading in some circumstances for Python (#1306)

[elextr]

As @codebrainz pointed out, Python is a dynamic language, the names only exist at runtime, that depends on what is imported by the program, but the autocomplete has to be provided statically with no visibility of imports, so it conservatively offers any name it knows that starts with the prefix.
