Describe the solution you'd like?
Autocompletions (the greyed out text after the cursor in the editor) should match the first option in the completions menu (the popover). Pressing tab should accept this match.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, the autosuggestion feature often shows different suggestions than the autocompletions popover. This is pretty confusing. Pressing tab will accept the autosuggestion, pressing enter will accept the autocompletion.
Additional context
I know there is a new setting to toggle the tab behavior, but it's still very confusing how this is meant to work. Why are they different?
How important is this feature to you?

Research direction
