In such cases, it would be nice if you could report these as bugs, much 
better if you can make a small source code to show where the problem is.

Descent has a lot of unit tests (about 2000 by now), and it has also 
tests for autocompletion. So it's a matter of adding tests with these 
broken scenarios, fixing them, and they won't appear anymore.

Descent is still not robust enough because it lacks enough usage and 
bug-reporting, IMHO.
