Ok, I have seen the video, it is better, I will reconsider and evaluated its
implementation.
However I might change many codes to re-implement the suggestion box,
anyway, I will list it in my work list.

Ok, I will consider it. Some questions below:
1. how how can I get the wiki name, space name and page name of current page
in javascript?

At beginning, I have tried many ways to avoid changing the css of the
editor, but the mask which is used to loacate the suggestion box get wrong
positions very often, especially when I tested it in many other computers
and OS, because the original editor is not decorated with css, like fonts,
line-height, so they will be changed in different systems, that is a mass
for identify the suggestion box position by the mask, because the default
behaviour of the div is a little different with textarea if we don't use css
to fix them. That is why I add some css to editor, but much, only for
font-size, font-family, line-height, word-wrap, padding, margin, this styles
not change the editor too much, so I think it might not a big problem. I
investigate some other implementations of the autosuggestion for textarea,
like the textarea of twitter(weibo.com) in china, the editor is decorated by
the same css, but without this, the location of the suggestion box for "@"
will not be correct always.

I tested in my computer, attach: outside the link context didn't trigger the
suggestion. I review the code, there is a decideLinkContext function which
will avoid suggesting outside the link context.

Ok, I will add it.

Yes, that is what I should discuss with you. I will discuss it in next mail
