There are still several bugs in the autocomplete extension (or maybe new bugs):

1) It doesn't always come up with results, even when there are known pages that
the keyword should match (this varies by use, not by keyword). See attachment.

2) Not all results are found for all topics, or even within the same topic; for
example, searching for "font" turns up 1 entry for Canvas, several entries for
CSS (but not "properties/font-size"), and no entry for "html/elements/font".
See attachment.

3) The list of entries is not keyboard-navigable (up/down arrows, enter), which
means it's not accessible.

4) The entries should not list the URL, just the page title, e.g.
"properties/font-size" should be "font-size" (or maybe "font-size
(properties)")

5) The colors for the headings should alternate by subject (the order doesn't
matter, but there should be different colors to match the logo colors)

This seems less usable than the previous version. I'm not sure what happened.
This is not ready to deploy.
