Problem Description

During the debugging cycle, I sometimes only want to change a tiny detail in a file. When doing this, the command completion menu opens and when I press CTRL-S to save the file, the file is not saved. I first have to dismiss the pop-up menu and then I can save the file.

What steps reproduce the problem?

1. Open a file.
2. Move to a position, where the command completion menu opens and wait for it to pop up.
3. Press CTRL-S to save the file.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I would like the file to be saved immediately when pressing CTRL-S, even if a pop-up menu is open, but the file is not saved.
