Bug Description
Binary package hint: xfce4-utils
When I hit Alt-F2 and type one of my recently used commands (e.g. "firefox"),
the auto completion mechanism reacts too quickly and I get something like
"firefoxrefox" instead: after the first 1-2 characters, it recognises the
command and completes it - while I'm still typing. That's not what I'd expect.
Correct behaviour should be something like this: Suggest possible commands in a
dropdown list, but don't auto-complete them automatically. Wait for the tab or
cursor down keys to select an entry. Just like the address bar of firefox for
instance.
I've also reported this upstream in the Xfce Bugzilla (http://

Hi,
Thanks for your bug report (btw, you don't have to file it here when you've already filed it upstream ;-).
