UnifiedComplete.js is the Places component that allowed us to replace
the autocompletesearch="urlinline history" attribute in the URL bar with
autocompletesearch="unifiedcomplete". I guess Thunderbird would require
a similar component to handle the contacts and global searches.

We hope to simplify the autocomplete interfaces, with more separation
between presentation and data handling. This might actually make the
new components easier to tackle.

The first changes to autocomplete will land in the next few weeks.
