How to hide/overriding other snippet with same name defined for parent mode?

[shjk]

Hi,

I've got a hl snippet to produce a horizontal line up to the fill column which is defined for text-mode. For some modes that have text-mode as parent (via .yas-parent) I want to replace this with a different snippet. In 0.5.* this was possible by just adding a snippet with the same name in the more specific mode. In 0.7.0 I get asked which of the two snippets I want to expand (without making it possible to see which is which). Is it possible to tell yasnippet to always use the more specific one in 0.7.0/0.8.0? I can create a work-around by having a more complex snippet that expands to different things depending on the major-mode but this is a bit inconvenient and a hacky non-solution.

I see, I was never aware of this "feature" in 0.5 (which I doubt was
planned). I will have to think about this... Maybe you can open an
issue on github.

Issue is here. https://github.com/capitaomorte/yasnippet/issues/270 

Maybe just providing a way to put elisp helper code into snippet libraries solves this in a nicer way?

I don't know how that would help, but there is already such a way, use
".yas-setup.el"!

Another item to add to the 0.8 changelog, btw...
