I'll commit a new version with the debug thingy disabled when I'm back  
at my development machine. (It shouldn't have stayed in anyway, sorry  
about that. Blame pre-Christmas brainfade.)

Like Tony said, you can get this if you use Enter rather than Tab.  
I've chosen to do it this way so that it's still possible to tag  
something with "hig" if you really want to!

You can already achieve this effect if you use 'enter' to move between
cells rather than 'tab'. I've trained myself to do that anyway, as TAB
has had a nasty habit of not actually saving the final value.

So if you start typing 'le', say, and then hit enter it will become
'leisure' and move to the value field, where you can type 'pi' and hit
return and have 'pitch'.

It would be nice if this worked with TAB as well, of course, but in the
meantime if you can retrain your fingers then you can avoid that up-arrow.

I'm glad we can ignore it, but how do I turn it off. Every time I use
Ctrl+T to open another firefox tab, the debug info comes up and I
cannot use Potlatch properly without reloading the whole page.

Also, whilst I am in mood for constructive criticism :) is it possible
to make it so the autocomplete works more like excel in that if there
is only one autocomplete option valid it actually fills out the
remainder of the text box but is highlighted so it can be typed over.
This way you can just tab to the next field once you have entered
'hig' instead of them having to hit up arrow before leaving the field.

If you aren't sure what I'm on about, have a play with excel or any
other GUI offering similar autocomplete functionality.

Thanks heaps for the new update though, it truly is getting better all
the time. I can hardly remember the last time I futzed around with
JOSM nowadays.

I've added the two new ones ('H' and 'U') to the wiki. 'T' is a  
temporary bit of debug info, you can safely ignore it. :)

The keypress handling has changed quite a lot in 0.6, so there might  
be bugs - it sounds like you might have found one if you should be in  
a text box but the presses aren't being registered. Let me know if you  
can reproduce it and I'll try and hunt down any bug.

Let me add my kudos as well! Potlatch continues to improve by leaps and
bounds.

The shortcuts page on the wiki (
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Potlatch/Keyboard_shortcuts) don't
appear to be up-to-date.  I notice that there are a few things I trigger
when I type when I think I'm in a text box.  For example, if I type a "t", a
box appears with tile statistics.  I'm not sure how to remove it though.
:-(  I also sometimes get a bunch of locked, deleted ways, when I type "v".
Is there somewhere where these are documented and I'll update the wiki page?

Thanks!
John

:) Thanks! I can't claim the original idea for the autocomplete-like
