Autocomplete on dot, parenthesis, and semicolon

In Visual Studio Code there is this user setting:

  // Controls if suggestions should be accepted on commit characters. For instance in JavaScript the semi-colon (';') can be a commit character that accepts a suggestion and types that character.
  "editor.acceptSuggestionOnCommitCharacter": true,

As the comment mentions, what this does is accept the autocomplete suggestion not just on enter/tab, but also when entering certain characters that are usually used after the suggested text.

For example, if programming in Javascript you would write (as typed on the keyboard):

win.al('hello');

And Visual Studio will confirm the suggestion after each '.' and '('. So the resulting code would actually be:

window.alert('hello');

Now, what characters accept the suggestion depend on the language, and AL doesn't seem to autocomplete on any of the characters that would usually continue a suggestion. For example: '.', '(' and ';' just write the specified char, cancelling the selected suggestion.

It would be great if the NAV extension supported this setting. Specially for those of us who also work with C# or Javascript and keep cancelling suggestions by mistake, when writing AL code! :)

P.S. I checked that this was not implemented in version 0.17.19506.

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the AL language extension's completion and commit-character handling, then compare its behavior with Visual Studio Code's acceptSuggestionOnCommitCharacter setting. Done means characters such as '.', '(' and ';' accept the selected suggestion instead of cancelling it.
