| Description | Current search autocomplete works based on search history.
Extend search autocomplete to be predictive based on known keywords within the search context (i.e. downloads search context autocompletes on all known keywords for downloads). Also make it predictive based on the main 'Title' field of the content, e.g. the 'Name' of the download if a downloads search is being typed in. |

How will users know what a keyword is? If the text search is based on predictive search returns of key words in the "Search Engine Optimisation, and Tagging" section I assume as you type "A" words begging with A come up...
Yes, as you type.
It wouldn't be first character, it would be after you type a few (once it gets a small enough set of possible matches for it to make a suggestion on that).
