Code completion popup

Describe the Bug

I dont know whether this can be called a bug, but I find one certain UI issue really annoying when using Cursor:

The code completion popup items are not justify aligned (with space between). If an entry contains two items like symbol or shortcut / snippet first and description second, both are left aligned and only separated by four whitespaces as it seems.

All other editors / IDEs I’ve seen work in the way that the first item is left aligned and the second one right aligned and I find it hard to get used to this non-justified view.

A justified view gives the user a way better visual structure.

Would be cool to have this configurable or even changed.

Steps to Reproduce

Simply open a file and hit ctrl + space and search for an code completion popup item with description.

It’ll be rendered like this:

item ---- description

And not like this:
item -------------------------------- description
