   every so often, i come across common terms, that should be in this database.

   Recently Millwork and Casework, which are terms used a lot, in the US anyways.

   Is it possible to put this stuff in a repo?

   Hey for what it's worth if you have ideas you can update the dictionary there https://github.com/IfcOpenShell/IfcOpenShell/blob/963ffa39b763226839c5efd7727e7d64fefc0593/src/blenderbim/blenderbim/bim/module/root/data.py#L112-L126 and it will auto-fill the suggestions when you use the looking glass button and type in class names in the BlenderBIM addon.

   Is there a way to format it, such that it autofills the predefined type as well?

   I'm sure there is a way. Would you mind adding this as an issue over on github so I can track it ?
