Hi: First off, kudos for a good job of the OpenSearch support in GN,
awesome job!
Does GN support the OpenSearch suggestions extension [1]? We are
building a custom application, from which we would like 'suggest' like
search, where, as a user types in a input text box, a list of possible
matches are shown (a la using Google suggest in the FF search box).
My understanding is that a given OpenSearch definition would advertise
per [2], and a client would bind a query against the given suggestion
URL. The OpenSearch 'server' would return (instead of RSS or HTML, say)
a json snippet, to which the client would parse the show the suggestion
results.
Any information would be much valued.
Thanks
..Tom

I made a ticket on that Tom : http://trac.osgeo.org/geonetwork/ticket/225
and should be able to add basic support for 2.5.1 or the next
