I do get the idea of being a feature. Not generally against autosuggestion list
(which matches the input).

The case, I typed similar search, but not the same.. Pressed enter and result
was search for the autocomplete text.. I searched by incident for
VestibulumVestibulum (or something different). As I type Vestib it starts with
the autosuggetion.

The user case. Press CTRL+F type blindly search term and press Enter.. And
search for the wrong keyword.. 

Press ESC isn't effective -> Closes toolbar.

You need to press backspace & or delete to remove the 'addition'

Ideally I would prefer a system as used in 'address bar of the browser) or
something in that direction
