I have been searching around to see if this was implemented or there was some workaround to make the popup movement behave like in Vi, using CTRL+P and CTRL+N to traverse it, but couldn't find it. Is this possible with jVi?

IIRC, completion popup grabs the keystrokes directly and does its thing; jVi has no point of interaction. Best bet is to take a look at the completion code in NB. I think you need to find a way to get NB to use ^P/^N, then it would work while jVi is enabled.

Looking forward for this, too. Couldn't bind this combination with netbeans internal tools.

Oh, I was looking for exactly the same thing, only ten years later..

Time to open a ticket over at NetBeans, and hope that something comes out of it.
