In case you would love to see this usability enhancement, go over to
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=266156 and vote for this
bug report:
----
The >-character is an autocompletion trigger. When I backspace to it,
autocompletion should immediately be re-triggered.

Example.

<?php
class F {

function bar() {

}
}

$f = new F();
// Now look:

$f->dr //oh wrong
$f-> // backspace-backspace
// uh, where is my autocompletion list? It isn't there
?>
In general, the best user experience would be that the system catch on
autocompletion when possible. So,

<?php
$f->bax // oh wrong
$f->ba // backspace-backspace

// now I want to see the autocompletion proposals again

?>

I keep pressing CTRL+SPACE over and over again. This enhancement would
tremendously improve usability!
