Wikidata image autocomplete does not take into account existing text
Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

Edit an image from a Wikidata element, delete the end of the image name leaving a non-empty prefix then start typing a valid image name. The auto-complete feature kicks in, but only for the text that the user types. Instead, the autocomplete should also take into account the text in the edit box, allowing for a faster retrieval of the image.

Here is an image of the issue. The prefix was 'Tisa ', input text was 'Mara'
