It would be neat when looking down a list of Code Insight properties and methods to
be able to move the mouse all the way to the right column and then bring up a Help
text box to the right that explains what that method was for. Or always turn it on
and see it change as one passes the mouse down over the list.

Also, while the CodeInsight list is showing it would be nice to have a hot key or
mouse way to say "Hide Properties/Show Properties" and "Hide Methods/Show Methods".

Sometimes a list pops up and the number of items on it is far larger than I'm
expecting and I'd really like ways to cut back on what is shown. Another way: I may
know I'm looking for a method that returns a type. So "Hide methods with void return
types" or "Show only methods that return integer" would be neat kinds of actions to
be able to take.

It would also be nice to hide parent classes methods. You may be using a control that
has a bunch of unique properties that it doesn't inherit from its parents and yet its
parents have lots of properties that you already know. You may want to quickly look
at just those things that make it unique.
