Would this apply to the package search on archlinux.org as well as
aur.archlinux.org? The main argument for disabling suggestions
altogether is that a native text entry (from an HTML input tag) spawns a
non-native suggestion widget. I know this cannot be helped until search
suggestions become a web standard, but people still might think it looks
tacky.
