Yes. Although Method jumping can guess wrong. If it is not sure, it sets a
jump point.
We can't do that for class completion. Nevertheless, if it is sure, it
should adapt.

I totally agree. But many Delphians like that feature. That's why we need
some options.

What about procedure completion?
It would be nice, if here auto adapting would work too. But here you don't
have a 1:1 relationship.
