Comment 4 for bug 894737

I was going to report this problem too.

The way to reproduce the issue is to start with the original directions 1-4:

1. start gnome-control-center
2. choose "Time & Date"
3. choose "Clock" and "Choose Locations..."
4. Click on a big green + sign

NOW:
5. Click on the new row that is created/highlighted. You are shown a text box and the I-beam cursor appears.
6. Type something (anything) and press ENTER. Note that this step must be performed *quickly*, without any pauses between keypresses or the terminating ENTER key.

Actual Results
Because the sequence of keypresses terminated with ENTER was issued so quickly, the auto-complete function never appears! You are left with the text that was typed and the international "do not enter" symbol on the right (solid red-filled circle with white horizontal bar in the center). Hover the cursor over the text "You need to complete this location for it to appear in the menu."

The user never knows there's an auto-complete feature. The hover text is not helpful. There is no help button (or equivalent) to explain what to do.

Suggestions:
1 Tell the user to type a few letters and wait for auto-complete to kick in.
2. Speed up auto-complete so that it appears sooner.
