Both autocomplete and chat are half-way UX solutions. Really what I need is some kind of mix of in-place chat with completion.
For context, very often I have to put some comment before the line for completion to set an expectation context.
Instead editor should allow me to influence completion with some kind of in-place suggestion input available under keyboard shortcut. Then I could type what I want into such input and when I hit Enter or Tab the completion proposal appears. Even better if it would let me undo/modify such input, and have shortcuts like "show me different option", "go back to previous".
