Hello, I don't think that there is a good reason why using the link color into the suggest results. There are no links, but only clicks in order to choose items from the result list. About highlighting, the bold usage is inherited from Google Suggest ( http://exm.nr/bRQuHJ). They used bold because they have a basic/poor design. What is interesting at Google Suggest is that they highlight the additionally suggested text (you type "xw", it suggests "xwiki platform" and highlights the "iki platform" so that the next character you type wipes out it's suggestion. I think this is smart and I would like to see a proposal (2 versions: one with bold and the other with italic) based on this example.
