We don't yet have the autocomplete for forum names available. And we don't have autocomplete for conversations, etc either (and there would be so much duplication for things like "For Sale: Leader frame" that it would be unusable).
For profile names that's a different thing. We should do that and will at some point. Is it the highest priority right now? Probably not (in fact I determined not this morning). So this is something we'll do later.
Moar bug fixes first... and putting some nav down the bottom of the screen.

Re: search "code", I really think that the use of ids for fora and profiles and threads is off putting. How easy would it be to use full names with auto completion pop up lists, à la a programming IDE?
I.e: I type "forum:r" and it suggests all fora that begin with "r". I pick one and it auto completes to "forum:rides and races" (probably in quotes to sort out spaces).
