Autocomplete appropriate domains when adding DNS records

Purpose of this enhancement, including design decisions:
When a user starts writing in a new record, we should show them an
autocomplete-like list of all the domains they have ADD access to. We
looked into the Autocomplete jQuery UI plugin, but this plugin is still not
fully developed. Mostly we just wanted to help the user know which domains
they can add records too without waiting for post-submission validation.

Process:
We were thinking about showing this list after the user hits '.' (the
period). This seems to be a logical event to trigger the list. After the
list is triggered, the user should be able to start typing the desired
domain name and the list will filter automatically for them.

Special factors to remember:
Needs to not be constrictive. If the user wants to use a domain not in the
list, they should be able to do that. We may even want a 2-second delay or
something.
