Description

🐛 The Issue
When using the SPARQL editor with CodeMirror autocomplete:

Start with an empty editor
Type the first few characters of a word (e.g., type "sel")
Select a suggestion from the dropdown (e.g., "SELECT")
Expected behavior: The typed text should be replaced with the selection (e.g., "SELECT")
Actual behavior: The selection gets appended to the typed text (e.g., "selSELECT")

here is the example repo link -> https://github.com/ghana7989/codemirror-issue-with-firstword

steps to run
npm install
npm run dev

Research direction

Trace the editor's autocomplete integration to determine why the selected suggestion is appended, and consider the issue done when typed text is replaced by the selected suggestion.
