Cannot reproduce in Firefox 85. If I type ma there is an auto-complete proposal master displayed as a dropdown.

(Furthermore, this is not a software bug?)

Thank you for the answer, it seems that due to the network, the automatic completion takes a few seconds to wait for me.

I expected it to have a small triangle and drop-down list instead of typing to start selection.

I can imagine a dropdown could work well if there were five branches; I can imagine type-ahead could work better if there are two hundred branches. Shrug. :)
