When you autocomplete ie. a function with pointer/reference arguments it autocompletes with the pointer/reference
symbol(s) next to the type and not the variable. Since many prefer the old c-style where the pointer/reference symbol(s)
is/are next to the variable it would be nice if this could be made user-customizable.
If autoformat could do this then that would be quite nifty too :)

Another one that should be possible for the user to customize:
"std::ostream &operator<<(std::ostream &os, const Point &p);" will be "fixed" to "std::ostream & operator<<(std::ostream
&os, const Point &p);" (note the space it added before "operator") when you format the code, would be nice if it was
possible to prevent it from doing that :)
