Unfocusing input element reverts value to typed contents (urgent) #241

I don't seem to be able to replicate the problem you have, could you edit the sandbox to show what's going on? https://codesandbox.io/s/5w1wq126pn |

Per your sample there - all you have to do is add I am using the selected contents to generate tags elsewhere on the page, so I'd like to wipe the autocomplete input... however it does not seem to work and refills when defocusing the element. |

Okay, I can replicate it now, one thing that already can be done is changing not to include a https://github.com/algolia/autocomplete.js/blob/f0822304e8c0f6ee90ed4db78b0140ac451c3e46/src/autocomplete/input.js#L93-L97 is called, it sets the value back to the query on blur. I think it would make sense for your use case to add an option to reset that to empty query instead of the query. Are you interested in contributing that? |

Too busy to do so sadly, working on business logic for the foreseeable future... Is this something that could be done in house? the use case is general enough, although users would have to roll their own tagging mechanism (which is what we've done). |

Thanks @Haroenv - curious how it will be implemented, will there be a new option, will it automagically detect input value being wiped? Just want to prep my code for the patch :) |

I'd add it as a new option @alystair |
In some use-cases, like when you're using autocomplete to make tags on a page, or using the output in any other way than prefilling the query, you don't want the suggested value to show in the input, but would rather like it to be empty. Before this PR it was basically impossible to have your input not filled, since it came back on blur and a few different places (see `resetInputValue` fixes #241

BUG
What is the current behavior?
When deselecting form field, contents revert to what was typed, not autocomplete. See animated sample:
Settings are: hint:false, openOnFocus:true, autoselectOnBlur:true
What is the expected behavior?
Deselecting the field should not revert contents to what was typed... although it would make sense to replace value if you click on the field again to edit choice.
