What did you do?

Typed in some characters until autocomplete suggestions showed up, hit <enter> to accept a suggestion, then hit <backspace> to remove character behind cursor position.

What did you expect to happen?

Character behind the current cursor position would be removed.

What happened instead?

Character from where I accepted the autocomplete suggestion was removed, then further <backspace> presses removed as normal (cursor remained at the end of the autocompleted text).

Great find, this is super annoying thanks for reporting!

This bug is back in 0.3.7. I'm not sure if that's the release that reintroduced it as I missed one or two.

This is fixed again right?

It's gone already.
