I get it. In the context of database search the autocompletion is not a good fit. What I had in mind was a keyword oriented search feature, as per my initial question, where autocompletion would make sense. Groups, even smart ones, are a good way to organize the file, but sometimes I really miss the opportunity to exploit more keywords. Any plan to strenghten the organization of the papers with any autocompletion or suggestions for the classification of paper?
