Research direction

The issue names no source files, tests, or entry points. Research how Emmet-style HTML abbreviation expansion is integrated into Eclipse, then define completion as supporting the demonstrated abbreviation and producing the shown HTML structure.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement

Emmet is an editor plug-in for many IDEs / editors that supports quick generation of HTML. For example

section.break>h1+ul>li*5

expands to

<section class="break">
    <h1></h1>
    <ul>
        <li></li>
        <li></li>
        <li></li>
        <li></li>
        <li></li>
    </ul>
</section>

It would be very useful to have something like this in Eclipse as well.
