Build ID: 20141021030208

Steps to reproduce:

Start typing into the Awesomebar.



Actual results:

As it finds new suggestions it will hide the dropdown then immediately re-open it, causing a flashing effect.


Expected results:

Since there are still suggestions to show there is no need (at a high level, I have no idea what the technical implications for this are as I have never seen the code) to completely close and re-open the dropdown.  It would be smoother to simply grow/shrink it to the new height.
Summary: Awesomebar suggestions dropdown closes and re-opens when typing, causing a flashing effect. If there are any results to display there is no need to close it all the way and re-open. It would be smoother to grow/shrink to the new correct size. → Awesomebar suggestions dropdown closes and re-opens when typing.
