            Bug ID: 145198
           Summary: Bash like autocompletion for Calc's autoinput
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.3.0.0 alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Description:
Make Calc's autoinput behave like autocompletion in Bash.

Refer the section "Calc auto-complete behavior changes" in
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice/2021-October/087911.html for
context.


Steps to Reproduce:
Consider an example of the following data in a column:

ABCD123xyz
ABCD345qwel
ABCD123pqr
ABCD123xyz
PQR

Currently on master, if the user types A in an empty cell in the same column it
does not show any suggestion and the only way to enter the text "ABCD123pqr"
using autocomplete is to type "ABCD123p".

Actual Results:
Currently on master, if the user types A in an empty cell in the same column it
does not show any suggestion and the only way to enter the text "ABCD123pqr"
using autocomplete is to type "ABCD123p".

Expected Results:
If the user types A it should show the partial completion BCD (common prefix).
If the user accepts that types 1 it should show the next partial suggestion 23.
If the user accepts again and types p it should show the final completion of
qr.




Reproducible: Always
