request to be able to disable content assist in EGL Editor

EGL content assist might be slow when working on projects migrated from VAG to EGL.

It will be very helpful to have preferences similar to the one available for the Java Editor under Java ->Editor -> Content assist -> checkbox "Enable auto activation"

This will prevent the content assist from appearing when a developer is typing a dot.

    We agree that this would be a good enhancements. Auto-activation can be time-consuming with large applications, so we should allow users to turn it off. This is a candidate for implementation in the next release.
