This is surprising - symbols from the current file should always precede global 
symbols in the autocompletion list, see

https://github.com/geany/geany/blob/b35e9248c6abbe70cf3bbec895385ddff4d8072d/src/tagmanager/tm_workspace.c#L871

Of course, if there are many symbols originating from the current file, what 
you type may get lost among them.

The Java parser comes from `c.c` which doesn't parse function bodies so local 
variables aren't present.
