What's Wrong?
When I type @ and select a file, pressing tabs most of the time it autocompletes just the path instead of the item I've selected.
I cannot even replicate the issue every time, as sometimes it works as expected.
What I've noticed is doesn't autocomplete even the full base path. After that, if I start another fuzzy search, the suggestion are less relevant.
What Should Happen?
When selecting an item from the file list using the file picker, it autocompletes fully.
