The autocompletion is still very unusable:

- hitting ENTER after some autocompletion is shown *does not* accept
it, but removes it
  eg. enter "win", see "winDOW" autocompleted, hit ENTER, "win" is
chosen
- hitting a dot "." (as described here:
http://groups.google.com/group/firebug/browse_thread/thread/36a2e75bcd390109)
  when something is autocompleted *does not* select the current
selection;
  eg. enter "win", see "winDOW" autocompleted, hit ".", "win" is
chosen; would have expected "window." + next autocompletion

- the popup showing the current available variants does not highlight
the current selection,
  making it hard to follow the position in the list when TABbing
through it
- I would expect using up/down arrow keys change the variant when the
popup is shown
  (but instead they go through the command line history instead)
- when the mouse is over the popup (by accident), it will always
select the item beneath it,
  even without clicking or moving the mouse; TAB doesn't work in this
case

Actually the previous autocompletion before 1.6 worked well and was
better than the current state, IMHO. The popup is useless if you still
need to cycle through the different variantes with (many) TABs. I know
that a mouse click works on the popup, but autocompletion should aim
keyboard users first.
