Summary	0021934: Project selection is not searchable
Description	in version 1.3.x the the project selection list is "searchable". Means you can select the dropdown menu and press e.g. "m" and the selection jumps directly to the first project starting with "m". I really missed that feature during evaluation.

Lightah 2017-01-04 04:40 reporter ~0054918	We have over 80 (sub)projects. This is for us the biggest usability issue when using mantis. On version 1.2.x we could use the JqueryChosen plugin to make comboboxes searchable (part of string) which makes it workable. This isn't compatible for version 1.3 and 2.0. I would personally classify this as a major issue when having more than 20 projects. Especially when using subprojects. Same issue for selecting the issue category, the user, etc. I think improving the selection boxes would be an easy big win.
