ViewsACE Editor - enableLiveAutoCompletion - Disable Auto Select
I have enableLiveAutoCompletion set to True which works great, except that our users do not want the first word to be automatically selected. For example, if the last word in a line of code is "x" and the user hits enter the first auto complete suggestion for the word x is auto filled.
Is there any way to disable the automatic selection of the first word suggestion on enter and force the user to use arrow keys? Or perhaps is there a way I add a blank keyword to the keyword list that is always matched by the completer function?

This looks like a bug in language_tools.js#L166 not resetting the value set from autocomplete.js#L496
the following hack seems to work around it
if (editor.completer) delete editor.completer.autoSelect
var Autocomplete = ace.require("ace/autocomplete").Autocomplete;
Autocomplete.prototype.__defineSetter__("autoSelect", function() { })
Autocomplete.prototype.__defineGetter__("autoSelect", function() { })
