You actually have to press space, then enter.  The reason that this
works is that when you start typing, it filters out menu items that
don't contain the substring that you typed (and selects the first one). 
When you type 'space', it selects 'declare temp': the first menu item
with a space in it.  So, if you want to make it an instance variable,
you can type 'i'-'enter'.

It might be nice to have the first entry selected by default.  It shows
up as selected in the menu UI, but apparently the model doesn't think
that anything is selected.

Cheers,
Josh
