I have worked with autocomplete and I hate it. In the programming languages I've used that had autocomplete I always turn it off. Must be just me, but I find it horribly distracting to have crap popping up on the screen while I'm trying to concentrate. I do like syntax highlighting to give me a visual cue as to when I've typed the command correctly, but beyond that it's too visually distracting for me.

As for the class/browser functionality, so you mean a browser for the built-in classes just like the way you can browse classes in your own code. Yeah, I can see how that would be useful. I mean, it's technically there already because you can open the code for built-in classes under the Project list, and then browse it in the Code tab just like your own code, but I suppose that is a little roundabout.
