IMHO, giving shortcuts two different meanings by default is useless, if not counter \
productive. In this case, ctrl-J works as expected on systems on which the XML \
Completion plugin is not enabled and doesn't on systems on which the plugin is \
enabled. It is hard for the user to follow this logic as she never has changed the \
shortcut settings. 

I am not much into usability and I am not sure whether such a programme with \
potentially many further plugins to come could be made without contradicting \
shortcuts, as this would result in not being able to assigne any further shortcuts at \
some point. But I think it would be worth trying not to double assign any shortcuts \
that are enabled by default.

A suggestion for the shortcuts:

ctrl-H         Automatic Completion Popup -- Reuse Word Ahead
ctrl-shift-H   Automatic Completion Popup -- Reuse Word Behind
