Bug #: 38847
Summary: Clear suggested text when input no longer matches
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: master
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: UniversalLanguageSelector
AssignedTo: [email protected]

Mobile Platform: ---
When the user adds a new character that does not match a previous suggestion,
the new character gets printed over the suggested character.
This can be reproduced by typing "Spak" (typing the 'k' character only after
the suggestion "Spanish" is shown).
The correct behaviour should be as follows:
- If the character mismatch is "acceptable" the suggested term should be a
hybrid term composed by the user introduced text + the suggested suffix.
For example, when typing "mao" to look for "Māori" (note the difference in
capitals and the ā character between input and suggestion), the suggestion
provided should be "maori".
- If the character mismatch is not "acceptable", the suggestion should be
removed.
The definition of "acceptable" characters can be based on alternative names
used in the language DB or based on some rules (equivalent characters
normalizing capitals and diacritics), etc.
