Auto-complete across window panes

#1

Feature Request: I have a nice wide monitor, so I work in two-column layout just about all the time, especially when writing tests. I’ll keep the method I’m testing open in the right column and start clacking away on tests in the left column. Inevitably, I start typing a method name that’s defined in the right column into the left column, hit tab, and wind up with some string I wasn’t expecting, because Sublime populates the auto-complete dictionaries separately for each column. It would be really cool if I could tell Sublime that I want auto-complete to transcend column barriers and understand that typing my_ne[tab] in the left column, should complete to my_new_function which exists in the right.

Thanks for making text-editing awesome!
