monaco-editor version: 0.13.1
Browser: Version 66.0.3359.139
OS: Mac OS X 10.12.6
Though the original issue #334 is resolved, setting wordBasedSuggestions: false still does not turn off word-based completion.
The issue can be reproduced in the playground:

When I hit Ctrl+Space after // I expect to not see word-based completion items such as Hello.
The bug is fixed, we just need to ship a new version of the editor.
Hi, I can still repro this problem in 0.17
suppressing the word based suggestions works in typescript but not in javascript.
Any ideas for a workaround?
