I know there were some issue with autocomplete recently. Is this still an issue
for you in the latest builds?

I'm marking this as WFM. Based on the age of the bug and the symptoms, if this was still happening we'd be seeing many bugs of this type. William, if you are still seeing problems with the latest versions please feel free to reopen and give more steps to reproduce.
