Stop automatic tab locations?

[firefusion]

Sometimes the automatic tab locations are very useful and others time they're not. I'd just like to tab in some code without the caret jumping to a new location defined by the previous snippet i entered. Is there a keyboard shortcut or command to quickly enable and disable this behavior?

Press escape to clear all the tab stops set by the previous snippet

it can lead to confusion, i would stay on the simple side of life

change the caret color

By the way, is it possible to make a different color of caret for the foreign languages than english? For example, default color for english (and coding) and when we change language to another one then caret change their color too. I think this is the best indicator of language, which is lacking in the system. But since this is not in the system, it may be possible in our favorite editor?

The same argument has been made against multiple selections themselves, simplicity is overrated.

why overrated? see how i simply choose to ignore your argument
