Description Ondrej Langr 2008-06-16 18:28:50 UTC 
Currently, when user types in just one letter (say "c"), all actions with letter "c" in their name are present. 

Expected behavior would be to offer first actions name of which STARTS with C, as these are tho most likely ones to be
selected. This applies generally, no matter how many letters have been typed.

In other words, results STARTING with the searched string should be first in the list of results.
