[Users] a question on competencies

Tomas,

the real reason it has matched is indeed unclear: it is due to the  
fact that auto-completion searches for any word that matches fuzzily  
your input, including replacement or move of some characters, even in  
any language.

A first version of "highlighting" which chooses the matching field and  
displays it in the small text is there but it fails quite miserably I  
fear. So I will try, as part of the move to "solr" to have a real  
highlighting which will make it more explicit.

We try to recollect such oddities on: http://jira.activemath.org/browse/IG-191 
  which you may want to re-open if needed.

hope it helps.

paul
