completion weirdness

Howdy, list.

I'm working with NSTokenField and suggesting completion to the user. This works great. The problem comes in when they use a period or a colon in the token; then, it automatically assumes they want the first suggestion. My tokenizing character set is space and comma, so I figure period and colon should be fair game, but they're not.

I see this behavior in other UI elements as well. For example, go to Safari's Google search, start typing, hit F5 to suggest completions, then type a period and it picks the first one, adding a period to the end, instead of continuing along with what you typed before.

In my case, I'm doing completion automatically (no F5), so it's doubly frustrating.

Is there any way to disable this?
