When CR was in there before, it was absolutely irritating. 
I had to put a space before hitting return just to prevent a completion. In my 
case, it always happened when typing the method header.

OCompletion's ordering is based on your recent activity. See

In my opinion, this works really great.

no, because the situation also occurs when you are typing a new message that 
does not exist yet.

If we want to improve completion, I think we should take a look at XCode's 
completion. It works *very* nice for completion of keyworded message syntax.
