[OSM-talk] Recent Potlatch changes

[David Dean]

I'm glad we can ignore it, but how do I turn it off. Every time I use
Ctrl+T to open another firefox tab, the debug info comes up and I
cannot use Potlatch properly without reloading the whole page.

Also, whilst I am in mood for constructive criticism :) is it possible
to make it so the autocomplete works more like excel in that if there
is only one autocomplete option valid it actually fills out the
remainder of the text box but is highlighted so it can be typed over.
This way you can just tab to the next field once you have entered
'hig' instead of them having to hit up arrow before leaving the field.

If you aren't sure what I'm on about, have a play with excel or any
other GUI offering similar autocomplete functionality.

Thanks heaps for the new update though, it truly is getting better all
the time. I can hardly remember the last time I futzed around with
JOSM nowadays.
