Searching for Africa finds África but the UI doesn't behave quite right. Create a page named "África" with any contents. In prefix search box type "Affrica". Expected: The title África shows up and is highlighted Actual: The title África shows up but isn't highlighted Then hit enter. Expected: You are taken to the África article. Actual: You are taken to the search results page.
I'm not sure how big a problem this is and I'm not 100% sure where this will have to be fixed. It'd be nice if the search backend were allowed to highlight the results like it can with the full text search. It'd also be nice if the search backend could mark the result as a perfect match to make the enter behaviour work.
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/102958/ actually fixes the second half of this. The first half is still open.
