inline, completions
✅ Viability Checklist
My suggestion meets these guidelines:
- This wouldn't be a breaking change in existing TypeScript/JavaScript code
- This wouldn't change the runtime behavior of existing JavaScript code
- This could be implemented without emitting different JS based on the types of the expressions
- This isn't a runtime feature (e.g. library functionality, non-ECMAScript syntax with JavaScript output, new syntax sugar for JS, etc.)
- This feature would agree with the rest of TypeScript's Design Goals.
⭐ Suggestion
VScode has supported inline completions: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/blob/main/src/vs/vscode.proposed.d.ts#L2576.
Let's find out what can we do with the new API.

Compare its capabilities with the TypeScript project, then establish a specific supported feature and acceptance criteria; the issue does not define a concrete change or completion test.
