Just a proposal regarding the snippets.
It would be most useful if the snippets were only active when their respective mode is active. This way, the same trigger could be used for various modes and applications.
Wow, I was just about to post the exact same suggestion on the wiki. I'll still post it there anyway, assuming you haven't beaten me to it :-)
For example, the trigger "table" being already used for html, it cannot be currently used for Latex. However, if the triggers were tied to a mode, we could use the same trigger, simplifying our lifes.
I was thinking of 'if'; just about every language supports some kind of 'if' statement, so there's huge potential for clashes there, and with just about every other control structure, in fact.
