One direction, although it's going to be a slow one, is to put a Request For Enhancement in for RDp.

I don't use snippets so I'm not familiar with what's available via plugins.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Code Snippets
We are not satisfied with the snippets and templates features of RDPi for our RPG programmers and are looking for another solution.
Requirements:
Injecting a block of code should be capable from content assist
(ctrl-space) regardless of whether the cursor is in a free format block or not.
If replaceable variables are found in the code block, it should present an interface for filling those values in.
Filling in replaceable variable values should be able to be done all from the keyboard without mouse interaction.
Code blocks must be pulled in from a central repository; the plugin must not source them from the local PC
Is there a plugin out there that can do this already in RDPi or is it possible to be developed as a plugin?
Can anyone point us in a good direction?
Thanks,
Robert Newton
