The plugin currently enables completions only for HTML elements matching $('textarea.wikitext'). But it looks like jquery-textcomplete added support for input[type=text] elements, so enabling that seems possible.
However we would probably still only want to enable it for fields that actually support wikitext, so using something like input[type=text].wikitext would be nice. But Trac does apparently no use the .wikitext class for any <input> elements, even when they do support wikitext like here.

Okay, if you think it would work best to add wikitext or another specific class to the elements, I can investigate implementing that for Trac 1.2.1.

Replying to Ryan J Ollos:
any thoughts about eventually integrating this into Trac
I created #13071 to discuss this separately.

Sounds great. This patch would enable the autocompletions (but doesn't until wikitext class is added on relevant <input> elements).
Removing .wikitext from the last line in the patch enables autocompletions for all input fields (including non-wikitext fields like "Email:", "Max items per page" etc. and we definitely don't want that).

Thanks, the patch works well. I created trac:#12701 for adding the wikitext class to input text fields that accept wiki markup.

I haven't spent much time looking at the source for this plugin, but was wondering if you have any thoughts about eventually integrating this into Trac. If the plugin get a good amount of testing through use on this site and the edge cases get worked out, do you have an opinion on whether it would be a good fit and how much effort might be required to move it to Trac?
