Doesn't work with autocomplete

[calebmeyer]

If you start recording a macro, and use an auto-complete in the middle of it, the auto-complete doesn't pop up during applying the macro, so the word isn't completed.

I personally think that using autocomplete in a macro might be a bad idea since the user creating the macro might think it will take the Xth selection from the autocomplete and then when executed on other areas, won't work the same way (no suggestions, suggestions don't show up as fast, etc). It might be safer to be creating the macros manually. Autocompletiion (and other plugins) might make this difficult otherwise, since some users might have it set to autoconfirm, and others might need to press TAB or ENTER to confirm the suggestion, which in case of this macro, will it then replay the "TAB" or "ENTER" regardless of suggestion?

It might be okay if you can somehow make sure that when you are grabbing a value from autocomplete, you undo any keys used for activating it, and use the suggested word as if the user typed it directly?
