I like the auto complete--it's a great feature. I can just ignore it and type anything I want anyway. The option to turn it off is in 2.9.10 (Beta).

What would be very useful is to have the search box auto-enter whatever download or search result is selected. The entry could then be edited, especially for longer names. If I have to quit LW, all my search tabs are lost and it's tedious retyping all the pending downloads in order to search for more sources.

(Hi Sam--thanks again for adding the autocomplete).
