Auto-complete is implemented for the "well-known" keywords.
Try this:
  - Type "10 = T" and hit CTRL-Space

Vitaly Dutchak has implemented this nice feature.

i think we can implement auzto-closing braces. So if you type "{"+Enter 
the cursor will be indented and a "}" will be inserted in the next line.

that is really really difficult. I see some blocking issuses on that.
- we would need to implement an whole TS-Parser in JavaScript which 
"knows" the object type of every single variable in the code.
- we need to build a kind of typoscript-grammar which allow to decide 
which properties are available in this "object type" > and implement it 
in Javascript.
This is really hard stuff to do - specially when talking about 
TypoScript and i think it would be really usable because auf lack of 
performance.

It could be possible to do something like that in TypoScript 2.0 :-)
