Bug ID: 64703
Summary: Title autocompletion should also match display title
and show it

OS: All

As a reader of a multilingual wiki looking for a page in my language, whose
title has been translated via the Translate extension, I want to type in the
search bar in my language and be autocompleted in my language, till I reach the
page whose display title is what I'm looking for.
Example: page title Help:Navigation/it, display title Aiuto:Navigazione.
https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Help:Navigation/it&action=info
I type Aiuto:N, I want to see Aiuto:Navigazione in autocompletion and be
brought to the actual page.

Problem reported by an institutional user of MediaWiki:
> trying to create a multilingual
> mediawiki for the * Archive at the University of *.
> We're trying to constitute a international collaboration network for this
> big *. [...]
> also entries already
> translated are displayed in the search bar as the original word with
> /languagecode - how can that be changed.

Note, I don't give for granted that users/wikis actually want to translate page
titles (and especially namespace names within them), because often they don't;
but when they do it makes sense to actually use those translations.
I hope that this will be easier than categories, because it doesn't involve
parsing.
