autocompletion feature request: match improvement

1

Greeting,

I quite like the fuzzy search behaviour, but not the fact that it does not trigger on first character, waits for second character:

Should this be a configurable behaviour?

I don’t think so. Matching a single character somewhere arbitrarily in the completion doesn’t seem a very useful filter.

I likewise find the fuzzy search to be great. The single character match would be useful for some use cases potentially

We have some completion lists that contain distinguishing digits e.g. 1-9. For example we have a regex to match an @ before cursor followed by certain characters to show a list (using validFor to contain the filtering). The options list labels contain distinguishing digits. Would be good in this case if @1 showed User 1.
Maybe there’s another way to do this though that I’m missing
