hello friends,

i have done a few improvements to the autocomplete module, to fix problems
and improve functionality:

added selectOnly option to autoselect a result if there's only one. this may
save you a click.

moved the loading indicator to the left side, in case the field is rtl.
requires a small plugin i made, attached here. a css entry is being added to
this effect. the included css file has this, but as oposed to the main
autocomplete.css, colors are given as names. it's nice, but i'm open to
changes ;) .

added substrings, and substringsSeparators. as oposed to multiple, which
deals with a list of elements separated by a fixed string,
substringSeparators is a string made of chars, that each and any of them
provide a separator between autocompletable strings. it supports editing a
program with a closed list of keywords, and operators and spaces as
separators.

added extraFields, a list of names or ids (if prefixed with #) of other
fields to provide as fieldname=value params to the ajax query. in case names
are provided, they are expected to be inputs in the same form as the input
itself. more complex relationship may be found by adding suitable callbacks
to extraParams, which i'd only ask to receive the $input and the key name as
parameters.

pasted joern's solution to the ticket http://ui.jquery.com/bugs/ticket/3587,
to allow pressing of other key combinations while an autocompletable fields
has focus, and still keep autocompletion valid.

though i can't yet be very specific, i found multiple autocompletion buggy,
and hope to devote some time to contribute to it's fix too.

it seems that hideresultsnow() is being called much too many times, however in 
mustmatch failure case it is changing the text. this function has to be split, 
probably.
