The autocomplete in 5.1, where does it pull the suggestions from?

Is it not possible for it to pull suggestions from the database, based on postcodes in the database or the search log?

The suggestions are different things in different places. For the search autocomplete word box, it's link titles. For the postcode box, it's postcodes in the database. For owner names, it's member names in the database. For quote authors, it's quote authors in the database.

I'll need you to post a URL at least.
