Are you reporting a feature request or a bug?

Feature request

Provide detailed reproduction steps (if any)

We need a component that provides an ability to display a dropdown with options matched to the currently typed text. This feature is needed for Mentions #1703 and Emoji #1746 features.

This feature should provide a flexible API, it should work both synchronously and asynchronously.

It should allow for customizing the way entries are displayed.

Preview

Users interested in seeing how the feature looks today can preview it on our Autocomplete feature branch preview.

Browser Support

Currently we're looking to support the feature in all supported browsers except IE8, QM and CM.

@mlewand, @jacekbogdanski it seems that autocomplete do not update itself when selection in editor is changed by mouseclick.

It's on purpose. Otherwise, you will get autocomplete view when changing selection like @Ann^ by mouse click which is pretty annoying.

I agree that showing it on mouse click would be annoying, I'm wondering though if showing the dropdown for keyboard isn't annyoing either. Currently it's inconsistent. I'd vote for not displaying the dropdown in either case.
