Are tag names supposed to be autocompleted?

Describe the bug
I don't know how this extension is supposed to work so this may not be a bug. When I start typing a tag name I would expect it to offer autocomplete suggestions and it never does, for tag names specifically. For example if I type in {{ par it won't suggest partial. But if I type in {{ partial: then it lists partials in my project.
It would also be nice if it automatically closed the tag, e.g. added {{ /partial }} when I select an autocomplete option.
I tried disabling all other extensions and restarting VC Code but that didn't make a difference.

Versions and Other Plugins/Extensions

At the start of a tag you can force the completions to appear by hitting the completion trigger (on Windows it is Ctrl + Space by default) and begin typing the tag names (will look into improving the some triggers) and begin typing:
Not all instances of the partial tag will always be closed, and there is no reliable way to do that without being frustrating for most users.
Thanks for the quick reply. I don't think I explained very well. I am getting suggestions, the problem is they don't include any Antlers tags. This happens whether I manually trigger it or it triggers automatically when I'm typing.
Also, if I understood that last part correctly then it should automatically close some tags, just not the partial tag. Is that right? It's not closing any tags for me, but I guess that's because the autocomplete isn't working.
The extension will not auto-close any tags, by design.
I am not able to replicate the auto-complete behavior. If you trigger the manual completions trigger in an empty {{ }} does it display a list for you? If not, could you include your emmet/etc. configuration?
Thanks!
Here's what I get when I do that:
Looks like it includes a lot of Statamic things (custom fields and such) but no tags.
I tried totally disabling Emmet just now but that didn't make a difference. Here's my configuration (apologies if there's a better way to share this).
Closing issue as it hasn't been reproduced or seen activity in a while.
@JohnathonKoster I've had this same issue frequently, but I've never been able to figure out any logic to when it fails to work. TBH I think VSCode just hates me because it only fails when I'm actually writing templates. Every time I try to debug it works fine. 🤷
