Quoting Michael Wing <[email protected]>:
When composing a message, after typing a few characters into the "To"
field, the autocomplete brings up a dropdown list of matching addresses.
Is there any way to make it so that the address is actually populated IN
the To field? For instance, if there is only one matching address,
currently I still have to hit Tab, or the down-arrow to select that
address.
That is correct.
Ideally, that one single address would be automatically populated
in the To field.
This is a terrible idea. Just because there is one entry, doesn't
mean that this is the *correct* entry. That is a dangerous, and
incorrect, assumption.
This is a very common scenario:
1. Enter a few characters.
2. Auto-complete comes up with 1 entry, but it is the wrong entry.
3. User realizes that maybe he doesn't have address of user he wants
to send to, so he wants to cancel auto-correct.
4. Incorrect auto-correct entry is populated in address box.
It is correct UI to require the user to verify that the address is
proper/correct. An address should NEVER be automatically inserted
into the address field without user verification.
