suggestion: autocomplete should work on
- scientific names, search entry page: only nub taxonomy by default (species search defaults to nub taxonomy)
- scientific names, search result, green bar entry field: all names from checklists active in the facets filter (default: nub taxonomy if coming from the species search, or specific checklist if coming from the checklist dataset page)
- common names: probably not (?)
Any autocomplete can be overruled by a user to, e.g., allow copy/paste or fuzzy search.
