Description Michael Rennie CLA 2015-04-28 14:11:50 EDT 
While working on bug 465322 I found that if you pass a proposal with an unknown style content assist silently fails.

The problem is in the following code in contentAssist.js (~line 610):

if (filteredArrayStyle && (0 === STYLES[filteredArrayStyle].indexOf(STYLES.noemphasis))) {
  // the style of the first element starts with noemphasis
  // add these proposals to the end of the array
  first = prev;
  last = filteredArray;
}

if filteredArrayStyle is not in the style array the code throws and silently catches an exception, resulting in no proposal popup being shown.
