I agree this would be super cool. We can use the same search backend (and endpoint) too, instead of creating a different search pipeline for this. The current search is super fast and I'm not worried about speed at all.
However, I wonder if we could spend our time building out other features first? Maybe it would be better to do #58 which would let us add filtering tot search (#1) first? Maybe we could add some social features?
Edit - just saw your other comment about elastic search too - sounds good
Yeah elasticsearch is the prereq for this for sure
I think autocomplete might be a better user experience than instant search results.

Let me know what you think. I can work on a bit of prototype to see how it feels.
