Historical data presented to the user when filling in forms is not alpha sorted when wildcards are used. Specifically with the Swedish sales site "Blocket.se" searching for products with a partial match ie *fräs*, *virke* ,*traktor*, *släp*. When the first asterisk* is typed into the form the previous wildcard searches are presented in the order in which they were first entered instead of correctly sorted.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.go to www.blocket.se and select any region as home region (try dalarna)
2.type wildcard symbol* and any part of a random product description for a variety of products in the first form space.
3.observe the dropdown window when the first asterisk* is typed
Actual Results:  
unsorted data relating to the previous wildcard searches was presented for selection in the form window.

Expected Results:  
sorted data
