Network-wide nick autocomplete

See original GitHub issue

For our conference we are using a bot to do things like inviting people to videocalls with jisti, creating secret channels, and asking people’s pronouns. However we would like to restricts those commands to a query with the bot so that public channels are not flooded with bot commands. Also, some commands might be better kept private (like the creation of a secret channel).

The issue is that since right now autocomplete only autocompletes from the list of nicks on the current channel, when an user wants to send +pronouns <nick> privately to the bot, they don’t get the nice autocomplete, and needs to remember the nick.

Would it be possible to extend autocomplete to search through all nicks on the network. Or at least all the nicks that share a channel with the user on the same network?

Closing as this is out-of-scope for the client. Would be nice for conferences but it would be confusing for the majority of users who have used other clients and previous versions of TL.

Right. But that’s a lot for people who are not used to IRC commands.
