Hi I think you are expecting java content assist in an xml editor. AFAIK that is not supported

XML tags can contain any text unlike java which has syntax for it programs, So it is difficult to have content assist for it. Not only Eclipse and XMLBuddy, I have not come accross any xml editor that has this sort of content assist.
