[TxMt] Repeating tabstops in snippet

[Brett Terpstra]

Okay, tell me if this is stupid, but is there any reason you couldn't  
make </select> the tab trigger?  Then you'd be able to add on to the  
end of any select list and not have to delete anything off the  
end...  I'm trying it out with unordered lists right now and I can't  
find any problems, but I tend to be short sighted on these things.
