unhelpful popup

Sometime between 201308152300 and 201310070001, a new feature has been introduced which is alot like the extra-helpful paper clip in MS Word... irritating. And wrong.

When I type
    class Name {
I get a popup with all of the available classes.
 (a) a class name is never appropriate following the left brace
 (b) previous versions correctly did nothing except provide the closing brace on return.
 (c) this changes the interface, so that if I do what I have done since version 6.4 or so, I get a syntactically incorrect insertion like,
    class Name {AsyncIOStruct
