Details:

Similar to bug #56207, although of lesser importance, it would be nice if the
autocomplete list in the GUI Editor included available variables defined in
the current workspace.

Matlab does this, and the Octave interpreter in the Command Window also does
this.

As an example, in the Command Window do


mydata = pi;
myd<TAB>
mydata
