Enable biasing or filtering autosuggest values based on field #1251

Enable biasing or filtering autosuggest values based on field

Eg: I want the common nutrients for the Mineral water category I want the common labels for wines

This is to improve the autocomplete experience on mobile.

Thanks @TaciteOFF for the idea.

We could add category fields to the nutriments taxonomy (preferred?), or nutriments fields to the category taxonomy. This would allow to filter the nutriments shown.

Add a field like category:en:wine:en:yes or category:en:mineral_waters:en:yes

I was wondering a few days ago, if machine learning (multiclass classifier?) based on the other taxonomy fields could help with better autosuggest. That way, we could train the AI based on existing product data, and wouldn't need to tag every autosuggest field manually …
