Problem Description

When in the ipython console, and attempting to "autocomplete" within the parentheses of a function call, will indeed bring up a list of suitable attributes/functions, but it erases what has been typed within the parentheses?

What steps reproduce the problem?

within ipython console
import datetime
datetime.date(datetime.dat TAB

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

Expected is that I would see the popup-completion box to offer appropriate suggestions (it does), but it does so at the "cost" of replacing datetime.date(datetime.dat... with datetime.date(.
extremely annoying

I tried the same in standalone ipython, and couldn't reproduce the bug, so doesn't seem to be ipython related and this is a new issue, I've been using spyder for years and I can't remember that ever happening before
