Dear Murat,

thank you for your great work!

I have some proposals regarding the tag autocompletion plugin:

1. Please make it a standalone plugin again. The autocompletion of tags is
also very useful without the tasklist plugin. I tag a lot of my pages and
the autocompletion makes this process very convenient. I'm sure, that most
Zim users share my point of view.

2. In addition to "arrow up and down" respectively, also "tab" should cycle
through the suggested tags in the autocompletion pop-up. This just feels
more intuitive. The "tab" key is also used in other programs to complete a
suggestion or cycle through them.

3. When a whole word is marked (f.i. by double-clicking on it) while
opening the autocompletion pop-up, the selected tag doesn't replace the
initial marked word, but is placed before the word. It would make more
sense, when the initial word would be completely replaced by the tag.

4. Found the following bug: After invoking the search (Ctrl+F) it's not
possible to write an "@" there, when the autocompletion plugin is enabled.

Wishing you all the best!
