Can you control behaviour of insertion?

in SQL Prompt
Something I've never really looked into in all my years of using SQL Prompt I've just accepted how it works but is there a way to control how insertion completes your code when you accept a suggested object? For instance, I use SQL Prompt suggestions to complete an EXEC for a procedure with several optional parameters the code that is rendered presents a full statement including all parameters where in actual fact I just want the procedure name completed.
A really good example of that would be something like sp_whoisactive or sp_blitzindex where there's a tonne of optional parameters, but sometimes I just want to complete the name and run it with no optional parameters set.
I don't think this is possible but I thought I'd check. I realise I could set up a snippet for common ones but that's limited in use really.
If it isn't a thing, it would be a nice thing to be able to do...I'm thinking something like choose a button to insert entire command (TAB), choose a button to insert just object name (ENTER) or something like that.

As you've figured out, this is not possible in SQL Prompt at the moment and I could find any similar suggestion on our user voice forum. Can you kindly post this idea there so that other people can vote for it?
Thanks.
