Hi, Things look really good! I haven't been able to fully test everything I want to, as of this morning, but looks very nice! :)
I did find something interesting on Safari (on a mac) and using a private browser (so I didn't have to clear my cache) the type-ahead didn't seem to work for me (with the meta data display). Can someone verify that they see the same thing? Thanks - I'll test more later on today!
