Several users report that the search bar autocompletion *only* suggests redirects on it.wiki, replacing more relevant title matches: type "Kitzb", you get "Kitzbuehel" which redirects to "Kitzbühel" (reproducible for me). https://it.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Bar/Discussioni/Lanciamoci_nel_futuro_motore_di_ricerca_interno&diff=65202279&oldid=65197358
Confirmed. Was just getting to a stopping point and this seems worth jumping on so I'm taking it.
Renaming to reflect that it will suggest a title if there are no redirects that also match.

Silly bot, bug is fixed, this is just the backport to get the fix deployed early.

Users keep complaining about this error ("it's going on since months ago"), but I can't reproduce it any longer. I'm asking more examples. https://it.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Discussioni_progetto%3ACinema&diff=65431950&oldid=65426509
Thanks! Its been long enough that all the caches should have expired....
The last reporter confirmed the error is gone after a purge.
That is good. I wonder why they had to purge, though. I just confirmed that the cache time is six hours. The most I believe its ever been is a day.
