What do the two weighting methods you described actually do?
They provide more intelligent search results based on a partial search 
string.  But they don't learn/adapt over time based on user input, 
which I believe is the intent of this request.

Sort of have this in IMP - we now weight autocomplete by either 
liquidmetal.js (javacript search) or the PHP levenshtein function 
(server-side search).  Doesn't account for learning, but provides more 
intelligent result ordering.

This could potentially be useful anywhere we do autocomplete, 
depending on how it's implemented, but IMP address completion is the 
most obvious case.



Implement a learning (or really just weighting) algorithm so that the 
user's auto-complete choices are used over a straight match. So if 
there are two options when the user starts typing "Dan", and the user 
always picks the 2nd one, we should show the 2nd one as the default 
option.
