Bug Description

Ever since I started used OOo/LibreOffice Writer, one of my favourite features has been autocompletion... but the looks have always freaked me out, since it looks just like selected text, so most of the time I end up inserting spaces or something else just to make it look like normal text.

I think it would make a nice little improvement to change the style of the autocomplete text into something different. Perhaps it would be better if the suggested text it's grey; something like Google's suggestions on the search box (http://i.imgur.com/rmMyD.png)

felipelavinz, this is:
- a clearcut upstream issue. Your welcome to send this to the developers of the software by following the instructions at http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport
- won't be fixed in LibreOffice Packaging
Resolving as Won't Fix in LibreOffice Packaging. This does not mean the issue will not be cared about, but if it is cared about (even by Ubuntu/Canonical contributors), it is done upstream at LibreOffice.
