Hi site coding superheroes,
Small behaviour change request / discussion: when entering text into the search bar, it auto-suggests results based on live search. Which is good. BUT! When you hit enter, it follows the link to the first/top autocomplete search result in the list, and NOT to the user-entered text. The user has to mouse to the search button to avoid the autocomplete text from taking priority. This seems unintuitive compared to, well, basically every other search bar on the internet! Any chance the behaviour could be changed so that hitting enter parses the user's text into the search engine? Conceptually one could just hit the down key to highlight autocomplete suggestions then hit enter, if they want those.
While I'm typing: often an autocomplete search result will say there's >0 results but when you follow the link there are none. Can't find any recent examples annoyingly but can add to this later when it happens again.
Cheers!
