Hello Jacob. Let me add my 2 cents.

I do not totally agree with this patch. I am now using VStudio.NET2005 
and I think its implementation is better. Let me explain this behaviour: 
  if you press CTRL+SPACE, all options appear. If you begin typing, it 
does not hide the non-matching options *but* it sets the focus to the 
first possibility that matches what you have written at the moment.

For example:

a) CTRL+SPACE:

List: [ CodeDom, Collections, Configuration, Data, Drawing ]

b) You write 'D':

List: [ CodeDom, Collections, Configuration, Data (selected), Drawing ]

c) You write 'r' ("Dr"):

List: [ CodeDom, Collections, Configuration, Data, Drawing (selected) ]

d) You erase last letter:

List: [ CodeDom, Collections, Configuration, Data (selected), Drawing ]

e) You write 'o' ("Do"):

List: [ CodeDom, Collections, Configuration, Data, Drawing ]

If an option must be selected because of matching (cases b, c, d), the 
widget will move the scrollbar automatically so as to show the selected 
option at a medium position inside the widget.
