Hello!

I've been using autocomplete with a large dictionary of the most common english words over 5 letters; and it works great. However, I would like to turn it off in certain places and I'd like to turn it off without affecting Text Expander. How do I

1. Auto Complete can only distinguish between whole windows and not between URLs.
2. When "Display suggestions as you type" option is enabled, Text Expander string suggestions will appear according to Auto Complete settings. Regular Text Expander functionality will still work as usual, you just need to type the whole string.
