simplesearch happened because mwsuggest was out of date. And just as vector was
written by the usability initiative to replace monobook with something more
modern and usable simplesearch was created to replace mwsuggest.

So unless we have other extensions trying to provide this I do not believe that
this is an edge feature we're going to have multiple extensions trying to
provide.

I think simplesearch and it's improvements should be generalized and moved into
core to replace mwsuggest.

I don't like the pattern of leaving core fundamental things every site should
provide out of core. Especially when we go making usability improvements
optional features.
