No...I find it to be a PIA when I am trying to type out code and it automatically inserts a variable name that has nothing to do with what I am doing. Not sure what world you are in, but that is not useful at all...it slows down my productivity because I am always either backspacing to get rid of the variable or any time I use an end bracket on a tag I am having to click on it to get rid of the drop down instead of just typing. The better way to handle that is if you want to use it, have a hot key that can bring up the dropdown if you want it. Having it as a option that is automatically checked in Eclipse's very unintuitive, clumsy, and time wasting preferences menu is not a good solution. There is already enough useless crap in there as it is.
And I do have it disabled BTW.
