Autocomplete path/file names

So you know how we can choose, in Configuration, if we want to have this autocomplete or not for the Goto feature. And if we do, no more MRU, obviously.

Well, I'd love to see this setting added on the Goto window itself (a "Use Autocomplete" checkbox) aswell, so one could easilly switch it on/off while actually using the Goto feature (cause having to go through the Config window is kind of a pain, so I end up not doing it but I miss the MRU at times...)

I've been meaning to ask for some time, what does MRU mean?

I stuck it in the wiki and it came up blank.

MRU normally means Most Recently Used...

oh and, talking about adding checkboxes to the Go to window, another one that'd be real cool is "Open in New Tab" ; as Ctrl/Shift+Enter don't work

Yes, I see. This must be attacked on a more general level because currently all windows like goto, vf, selection filter etc. are instances of the same class. So, to add optional, flexible and instance-specific checkboxes, I have to change the basic layout of that class. Advantage: then it will be easy to add all kinds of checkboxes to all those windows.

Same subject so I'll bump this...

I was thinking that the autocomplete path/file could also be usefill on Catalog Item properties, wether it's to add a link to a folder/file, or an URL
