You could do something like:

- if filtering reduces the list to 1

Hi,
The list attribute [1] on input elements let the author specify a list
of pre-defined suggestions via the datalist element (each option of the
datalist is a suggestion). It looks like the idea is to have all the
suggestions showing like a combobox which is more or less confirmed by
Hixie [2].
