Build Identifier: I20100608-0911

When writing Java doc, then after the start tag is typed, the ending tag should come automatically like in HTML editors.

For example, when I write <code> then </code> should appear automatically. This will be very useful

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Write Java doc for a method
2.Type in <code> then </code> should appear automatically.
3.

Note that you can use templates, e.g.
<co[Ctrl+Space]

Thanks, yes! Never tried that. But again if I write <code> then closing tag should appear as in HTML editor, makes sense?
