For the code below:
namespace ns1 { namespace ns2 {
struct foo {};
}} // ns1::ns2


When you type:
ns1::


The autocompletion window will popup.
This is okay.

Then you keep going...
ns1::ns2


Now you press ENTER. It transforms the code into something like this:
ns1::ns2::


Well, yeah, the double-colons are completed, but the popup window for ns2 is not shown.
This is pretty much annoying. IMAO.

So: (1) I want the popup window for ns2 to be shown up on this moment.

Now go back to this state:
ns1::ns2


You are looking at the popup window of ns1:: for this moment.
You type double-semicolon by yourself this time (not by pressing ENTER)
ns1::ns2::


Well...... The popup window is still showing that of ns1::'s, not the one for ns2.
So: (2) I need the ns1's popup window to be closed, and ns2's popup window to be shown.

How about manually completing them?
There's a problem too...
ns1::ns2


You press Ctrl-Space or Ctrl-/ or whatever the key is.
Now the state changes to:
ns1::ns2::


(Double colons added)
You won't see the popup window for ns2.
So: (3) I want to see the popup window when a completion was fired and only one matching identifier was found.

Have any of these been discussed before? If not, how about implementing them and provide a configurable option for the custom behavior?
