I've read the documentation on Content Assistant and have been able to get the basic implemenation working.But I'm interested in a little different functionality which I'm hoping can be accomplished with little modifications.

Instead of the popup being displayed with the list of proposals, I'd prefer the first best matching choice auto-complete within the text field and the suggestion be highlighted or bolded (so the user can keep typing). I thought the enableAutoInsert would work like this, but instead I see you still need to press a key combination and the value is then automatically filled (and not highlighted)...

so for example, if I have a possible list of:
google
googxyz
googles

and the user types:
"goog"

I'd like the first object in the list to fill the textbox and be highlighted (bolded for these purposes):
"goog"<b>le</b>

but the cursor doesn't move and because the suggestion is highlighted the user can continue to type and overwrite the suggestions. This check/proposal would happen for each keypress...

Any help is appreciated.
