[Task] Suggesters should show a "nothing found" message
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

All suggesters (properties, items, units and so on) should show a single "nothing found" error message instead of disappearing completely. This is crucial to make it much more obvious to the user what's happening right now. Otherwise literally nothing happens and the "save" button does not become enabled.

Some suggesters already have a "more" button on the bottom. The design of the error message should probably be similar to that.
