Research direction
Investigate how autocompletion is initialized and updated in the JSONEditor codebase. Likely the autocompletion logic does not refresh when setSchema() is called. Look at the Ace editor integration in src/js/ace/ace.js to see if setCompleters or similar is triggered on schema change. Check the comments on the issue for any maintainer guidance or reproduction steps.
