            Bug ID: 63555
           Summary: VisualEditor: Switch action=opensearch calls to
                    list=prefixsearch where appropriate
           Product: VisualEditor
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: ASSIGNED

Gerrit af6d9ab introduced list=prefixsearch which can be used as a generator,
which action=opensearch can't be. This would allows us to avoid taking the
output of opensearch and turning around to make follow-up API requests for e.g.
pageprops to see if they are redirects or whatever.

We shouldn't do this switch until MW1.23 is released, at least, however.
