Bug Description

The keyboard shortcut Alt+/ is almost impossible to do on my de-de- keyboard layout. I have to press Alt+Shift+7 to activate it, making the idea of the plugin, speeding up programming, a bit moot :)

It would be great if that keyboard shortcut could be customized or be set to something more easy, like Tab. I think in python it makes sense that Tab with the cursor after a python object name does not create a tab or spaces, but brings up the menu. Because in python you would only use indentation at the beginning of the line.

Another option would be to have the python completer appear any time the cursor is after a recognized word.
