Thank you for the bug report. I couldn't repeat on below environment:

MySQL Workbench Community (GPL) for Mac OS X version 6.2.1  revision 12170 build 2094 (32 bit)
Configuration Directory: /Users/miguel/Library/Application Support/MySQL/Workbench
Data Directory: /Volumes/MySQL Workbench/MySQLWorkbench.app/Contents/Resources
Cairo Version: 1.10.2
OS: OS X 10.9.x Mavericks
CPU: 4x Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3210M CPU @ 2.50GHz - 16.00GiB RAM

To repeat try entering in a table name, or a field name, this does not work.

Auto complete works for mysql commands as you have established.

So Auto complete is not working for table or field names

Thank you for the feedback. I will try it.
