If I type
Element
and then ctrl-space,

I see two classes named Element in the statement completion dropdown. An unrelated bug is why we have two interfaces named Element in this list. But separate from that, the issue here is that there's no way to see why there are two. It would be good if the list would give the library name (in parentheses) when there are multiple classes with the same name, so there is at least some way to understand why there are two interfaces with the same name.

I suspect that the problem is that the list is not yet being trimmed to only show those names that are visible in scope, but instead shows all known names. Showing all possible names is not necessarily bad, but those that are in scope should at least come first in the list.

As either an alternative or in addition to the original suggestion we might want to display names that need to be qualified by a prefix in fully qualified form.

This is still an issue. For example, typing "D" and then ctrl-space, you see two entries for "Database", and nothing distinguishes why there are two. Or, if you type "X", you see two entries for "XMLHttpRequest", etc.

Works for me in the latest build. Re-open if this crops up again.


Added Fixed label.

we still have an init method, for better or worse, to break out of ES6 restrictions

The idea here is default Dart constructor (really an initialization method) is always called `new` instead of the class name. We already do this for unnamed factory.
