Hi Sean,

I agree with you, but since Python isn't static scope limitation won't
work, we don't know what class a symbol is.

When you say "Imho only the tab should execute a code completion
suggestion" I presume you don't want return to do so.  Unfortunately
that is hard to prevent because its defined deep in GTK.

Cheers
