Autocomplete/frontend: provide functions that hook into 'autocomplete…
…_insert' actual search and result data Reason: In order to enable development of sophisticated autocomplete algorithms, they will need to process all the data relevant to autocomplete - what was the search string and which result was the correct one. Example to illustrate the need: Say we are talking about these two people of interest, who are in the address book, among others: - person 1: Bostjan Skufca <[email protected]> - person 2: Bostjan SkuBIC <[email protected]> Our user is used to think about the first person by the first name, "Bostjan", as he is an old friend. The second one is a colleague at work where people call themselves mostly by surnames, "Skubic" in this case. Without this data provided to 'autocomplete_insert', there is no way for RC to learn that when our user enters "bos" in the To: field he thinks about person #1 (Bostjan SkuFCA), and when he starts typing "sku" he means person #2 (Bostjan SkuBIC).
