> Hi 007,

> Thank you for reaching out. I understand your frustration. However, the
`AutocompleteMixin` was never documented, which means it is not considered
a public API. Private APIs are not subject to deprecation. That is the
risk you take, when using a private API.

have a 3rd party package, that needs assistance, I would be delighted to
help.

In my package to achieve a similar function of this submission. I'm going
to try to re implement it in the way of 3.2, and compatible with earlier
versions
