4) Maybe I don't get the shortcut keys or whatever, but when I call a method which takes many named arguments (say, NSImage's "drawInRect:drawingRect:fromRect:operation:fraction:" method), the auto-completion is annoying to me as you start working through each argument. For instance, when I type "[myImage drawInRect:]" and hit tab, it appropriately highlights the complete first argument (NSRect)rect, so I just type the name of my rect, and it's good. Problem is, I can't seem to find a way to then proceed to the next argument. If I hit tab, it just inserts a tab between the arguments. I then have to cursor over after "fromRect:", and then highlight the next argument's placeholder, then start typing... It's pretty annoying, but this one I'm sure must be a case of user ignorance.

I, too, had trouble with this at first.  The key combination to advance to the next placeholder is Ctrl-/  (^/)
