> Hive settings offers autocomplete of a partial set of Hive settings.
> There are a few things annoying about the current behavior, mostly coming down to how the UI tries to make the field un-editable.
> This means:
> 1. You can't select the text, it's treated as atomic all-or-nothing.
> 2. A single backspace will delete the entire field.
> 3. You can't edit within the field.
> I guess you could say these are really all the same thing. Yet, strangely if I type in from the start I can backspace / edit.
> What I tried was to copy/paste some output from Hive CLI then edit it. When I paste hive.auto.convert.join=true into the field, I can't go in and delete the "=true" part, I have to only copy hive.auto.convert.join. This is annoying from a usability point of view.
