Ah ok, I haven't been aware of this. I played a bit around with it,
and yes, it's not that bad. Yes, sometimes it's faster to type a real
word, sometimes it's not. I think what's more convient depends on the
webside and on the preferences of the user. 

The biggest problem for me in the new hint system is the visual noise.
I confess, I'm a bit special in this regard. I'm getting very fast
oversaturated by visual and acoustic impulses. Therefore, no blinking
cursors and no beeping speakers ;).

Perhaps I will have a look at the implementation, if it could be made
configurable. But only if I can overcome my laziness :o.


Greetings,
Daniel
