VS2012 IntelliSense Suggestion Mode permanent setting?

Is there a way to make VS2012 IntelliSense Suggestion Mode permanent, by maybe setting it somewhere in TOOLS -> Options? Or maybe by setting it somewhere in the registry?

I really like the concept, and it makes TDD a lot easier if you know IntelliSense won't auto-complete your new class names. However, VS2012 doesn't always remember this setting on new solutions/projects.

MSDN lists the Devenv Command Line Switches of which /Command switch can be used to solve this problem.
Append /Command "Edit.ToggleCompletionMode" to the shortcut's Target property.

Or launch Visual Studio from the command line with: devenv /Command "Edit.ToggleCompletionMode"

You can change between the Completion Mode and Suggestion Mode in Visual Studio 2012 by pressing Strg + Alt + Space. This toggles between those two modes.

Or you can change it using Edit -> IntelliSense -> Toggle Completion Mode.

Currently there is no way to make the Suggestion Mode as default for all projects.
