Replace smc_AutoSuggest with jQuery UI autocomplete? #1590

At the moment the only place that uses AutoSuggest that doesn't use jQuery UI is the seach page, it can be loaded on-demand I suppose.

I've considered this a few times as well ... we would need some plugin I'm thinking, to handle the various options that autosuggest now has (various callbacks, the delete thing,etc) but I think it is certainly worthwhile !

As a personal opinion, jQuery UI is way too heavy for DOM, and it creates more troubles than solutions.

Since in 2.0 I've been removing jquery, going to close this as wontXXX
