How can I remove suggested people from invites in Dropbox Paper?

Hello. How can delete suggested names ("Suggestions") in "Invite" drop-down window in Dropbox Paper?

Thank you in advance for your help.

      Hi Jay, this feels like a continuing security gap in Paper.  I would like to NEVER be able to add someone via a Todo to a doc which I have secured as "only those invited may open this doc."  The Todo suggestions bar often suggests someone and if I'm not extra careful, I can add a random person to a private document.  This is a BIG DEAL for my clients and me.

       

      Please prioritize this as if it were a security issue.
