>>> My Info: Win7_64, Nightly 49, 32bit, ID 20160526082509 STR_1: 1. Open url data:text/html,<body id="100"><div id="10"> 2. Open inspector 3. In search field in inspector type "#", then type "1", then "0", then "0" AR: In Step 3 autocomplete suggestions change like shown below: ["#\31 00", "#\31 0"] -> ["#131 00", "#131 0"] -> ["#101 00", "#101 0"] -> ["#100 00"]. ¯ ¯ ¯¯ ¯¯ ¯¯¯ ¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯ Underscores represent what part of suggestion is highlighted as "typed". Suggestions do this actually Value "#100 00" is neither what I typed, nor what I get if I press Tab key (I get "#\31 00") ER: Either X or Y X) Autocomplete suggestions should only show human values, just like normal words. They should be: ["#100", "#10"] -> ["#100", "#10"] -> ["#100", "#10"] -> ["#100"] ¯ ¯ ¯¯ ¯¯ ¯¯¯ ¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯ Y) Autocomplete suggestions should display real values. They should be: ["#\31 00", "#\31 0"] -> ["#\31 00", "#\31 0"] -> ["#\31 00", "#\31 0"] -> ["#\31 00"] ¯ ¯ ¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯ ¯ ¯¯¯¯ ¯ ¯¯¯¯ ¯¯
