Details

Now that the autocomplete widget supports composite datasources, it would be a fine thing to silently discard any duplicate autocomplete results as they arrive. This also brings up the tangential question of whether the datasource should support merging the resultsets so that widget stays in sorted order.
(LDAP autocomplete would use the duplicate elimination feature for sure).
