Change #1118537 had a related patch set uploaded (by Samtar; author: Samtar):
[mediawiki/extensions/TemplateData@master] [WIP] SpecialTemplateSearchWidget: Add Special page

I wonder if we should call the new page Special:TemplateSearch (rather than include the implementation detail of the fact that it's a widget). It might be a useful special page to have so that there's some way to view one's list of favourites without opening a page for editing.

After @dom_walden mentioned it in yesterday's standup, I've created a new task to add some extra functionality: T387186: Improve Special:TemplateSearch behaviour

There is a special page Special:TemplateSearch, when you set $wgTemplateDataEnableDiscovery = true.
When you type into the search input it makes a request to api.php?action=templatedata&includeMissingTitles=1&lang=en&generator=prefixsearch&gpssearch=<input>&gpsnamespace=10&gpslimit=10&redirects=1, the same request made by the existing template wizard functionality.
