Support Xapian title index (via libzim) - aka "suggestions" #1246

We currently support Xapian fulltext index via libzim, but we are not supporting search of the title index due to lack of bindings in the libzim WASM.

hi, can you please assign this issue to me. I want to work on this.

@charanbhatia This isn't a trivial issue, and it actually involves creating bindings between C++ and JavaScript, then compiling with Emscripten. If you have experience with that, then by all means, but I actually can't provide any guidance on it, as it's low-level stuff.
