It’s simply a large and translucent message that’s displayed over the contents of your screen. They fade away when the user takes any action (like typing or moving the mouse). In practice, the message is both noticeable yet unobtrusive. And because the message is transparent, you can see what’s beneath

Request is in the title.

With ST3 build 3059, settings stored in the user's `Preferences.sublime-settings` file override matching keys in the global file. For most settings this is perfectly fine, but this could be streamlined for items such as `folder_exclude_patterns` and `file_exclude_patterns`.

Since these elements are arrays, why not simply push the user-specified exclude patterns array onto the global one? This way any updates to the source preferences will still be applied for users who use custom patterns as well.

The best would be to try matching the old text position and find where the caret should be moved.

No matter how many times I set view -> syntax -> open all files with current extension as PHP, all of my PHP files (*.php) are being opened in HTML syntax form.

Using dev build 2029

When I reorder my tabs, they come into focus as I drag them around. But usually if I am reorganizing then I am dragging tabs that I am not immediately working in, and actually would like to keep my current tab in focus rather than switch. The act of moving a tab is conceptually separate from wanting to work with that file, so I feel like moved tabs shouldn't automatically come into focus. 

Real "Code Complete" from Language library

Example:

When i'm coding in python:

import os
os.[codecomplete list must appear]

Don't complete from de imported library.

I will buy this fantastic editor, but Eclipse is better for my purposes.

I searched in documentation, but i dont encountered.

Thanks and i hope do be not make a stupid question :P 

We should be able to open a .sublime-package file and have it install itself automatically (like .tmbundle and texmate).

The Python API should use context managers (http://docs.python.org/reference/compound_stmts.html#with) wherever reasonable to make editing and other stateful operations more seamless and Pythonic. This will make it even easier to write more and better plugins, and since it's a backwards-incompatible change, the time to make it is *now*, while ST2 is still in alpha/beta state.

The sublime.View class has a begin_edit() method and an end_edit() method: these two commands are prime candidates to be turned into a context manager. Proposed API:

with view:

  do_a_thing()

  do_another_thing()

Much more straightforward and Pythonic than creating an edit object, passing it around, and finalizing it with end_edit()
