Is it possible for the REPL or VSCode to autocomplete the name of keywords. For example, after typing

```julia
range(0,10, len

```

and hitting the Tab key, I’d like to see the compeletion of `length=`, before I manually type in a value to finish off the line:

```julia
range(0, 10, length=4)

```

```julia
julia> range(0, 10, <tab>

range(start, stop; length, step) @ Base range.jl:150
range(start, stop, length::Integer) @ Base range.jl:151
julia> range(0, 10; l<tab>
# becomes
julia> range(0, 10; length=

```

on 1.11.2, this already works?
