When I hit F5 to do complete: in text edit the menu of completions

about a second, and then automatically hides.

Well rather proud of figuring this one out. Turns out that I wasn't
being dumb and messing things up myself. Instead the NSTextView
complete: popup menu behavior is different depending on if the app
supports garbage collection or not. I'm assuming that there is a bug
when garbage collection is on... the popup only shows for a few
seconds until it gets collected. I'll report this to app, in the
meantime does anyone know how to work around this problem?

I unfortunately have no work around but I definitely want to hear about it when or if you find one.
