MultiSelect AutoComplete text entry - GMail/FB style contact entry #5

Create a control that allows you enter text that will autocomplete, but once autocompleted, will change the text to an item that is represented differently. This item now is not text, but a unit that can only really be deleted.

E.g. Typing in "lee.ry" will suggest "Lee Campbell (lee.ryan.campbell@gmail.com)". When selected the text "lee.ry" will change to an item [Lee Campbell x] where 'x' is a delete button.

This could be used for contacts (emails/phones/etc), Currencies, Clients, Trading entities etc.. that require an autosuggest but also multiple values.

I think this is called tokenising.
