When I hit F5 to do complete: in text edit the menu of completions

Xcodes's toolbar search field the popup of choices only shows for
about a second, and then automatically hides.

Well rather proud of figuring this one out. Turns out that I wasn't being dumb and messing things up myself. Instead the NSTextView complete: popup menu behavior is different depending on if the app supports garbage collection or not. I'm assuming that there is a bug when garbage collection is on... the popup only shows for a few seconds until it gets collected. I'll report this to app, in the meantime does anyone know how to work around this problem?

I unfortunately have no work around but I definitely want to hear about it when or if you find one.
